Coronation Street fans have already started pointing the finger at Kit Green as they believe he’ll be responsible for an upcoming ‘death’ in the long-running show.

The detective constable, played by Jacob Roberts, is set to be central to an upcoming special week of episodes alongside police officer Craig Tinker, portrayed by Colson Smith.

Viewers will continued to uncover the secrets surrounding Mick Michaelis’ hold on Kit, leaving both his friends and family in grave danger.

And while a series of climactic events unfold on the street, culminating in a shocking and horrific incident, we’ll see Craig’s life hanging in the balance as he fights for every breath. As history catches up with him, will Kit’s future be destined to haunt him forever as well as his past?

But it was during Friday’s (May 16) episode of Corrie that Corrie fans got an insight into the hold Mick has over Kit. Through a series of flashback to 2007 interwined with present day, we discovered that Mick and Kit were good friends as youngsters, with them getting up to plenty of mischief, as teens do.

However, things escalated dramatically when a shopkeeper made derogatory comments about Mick’s troubled family background. While he was willing to let it go, Kit was more emotional about the shopkeeper’s remarks and suggested that they should make a revenge plan.

With Mick’s help, he lit fireworks and pushed them through the letterbox of the store – unaware that there was someone inside. Kit was horrified when he suddenly heard screaming coming from inside, with the shopkeeper’s wife was trapped.

When the shopkeeper arrived, he was quick to blame Mick, giving Kit the opportunity to do a runner, leaving his pal to take the rap and face prison time after the victim suffered third-degree burns.

But when tempers between the pair, in the present day, unfolded on the street, DS Lisa Swain was able to step in. While Kit denied there being any deeper issues with Mick, Lisa didn’t appear convinced.

Taking to social media, Corrie fans were keen to look ahead and fear that Craig’s current shadowing of Kit in CID, despite the detective constable trying to put him off, will what lead to him fighting for his life.

@claireh5611 shared: “Certainly know what kinda hold he has on Kit. Unfortunately Craig is going to suffer the consequences of Kit and Mick’s actions.” @TheConnorSwains replied: “He is. Kit is gonna have to live with the guilt of another one of his questionable decisions!”

@LIAM8268661 added: “Hey hey kit see how Lisa had your back there. If you did that for Craig he wouldn’t be about to die. It’s so gonna be his fault, at least to some extent.”
