Killer experience<\/h2>\n<p>There have been no shortages of serial killers on both sides of the Pennines, but when it comes to \u2018accidental\u2019 murderers, Corrie has definitely got the edge.<\/p>\n<p>With their experience of dealing with John Stape and Stephen Reid, maybe the Coronation Street residents could unmask John Sugden and expose his crimes?! We\u2019d love to see Fiz twig that John\u2019s not all he\u2019s pretending to be. Or perhaps Carla could warn Victoria to watch out for her brother \u2013 after all, Carla Connor is no stranger to evil siblings herself.<\/p><div class=\"dbxgas:ad-container dbxgas:double-mpu-container dbxgas:block dbxgas:md:hidden\"><div class=\"dbxgas:slot\" data-ad-slot=\"inarticle\"><\/div><\/div>\n<figure id=\"attachment_36149\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-36149\" style=\"width: 1500px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-36149\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17.png\" alt=\"pc swirling in uniform in Emmerdale\" width=\"1500\" height=\"931\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17.png 2568w, https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17-1024x636.png 1024w, https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17-1300x807.png 1300w, https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17-768x477.png 768w, https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17-1536x953.png 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.emmerdale-insider.com\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Screenshot-2025-04-04-at-16.24.17-2048x1271.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\"><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-36149\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Swirling would fit right in at Weatherfield Police Station!
