But now, a new flashback will reveal Lisa isn’t the only copper who could have committed a crime.
With Joel’s murder investigation still unsolved, DC Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) has been coming under pressure to get a result.
But has his reluctance to take advice on some lines of enquiry from fellow detective DS Swain (Vicky Myers) been down to his own involvement in Joel’s death?
In tonight’s Coronation Street, viewers will see the waters further muddied when a shock flashback takes them back to the night of September 27.
It will show a clearly agitated Kit deleting a phone call while snatching a bottle of whiskey from the Rovers bar.
Where was Kit those moments prior and what does he need to take the edge off?
A second flashback will reveal all as viewers see Kit on the wrong side of the law once more, leaving viewers wondering if the Weatherfield cop is actually the killer?
During Friday’s Coronation Street, viewers watched as Kit was placed in charge of the case, after it was decided Lisa’s daughter Betsy’s involvement with Joel meant she was too close to lead the inquiry.
Lisa had told Kit that whoever was driving the red car that crashed into Greg’s wing mirror could have vital info on what happened to Joel.
The revelation left Kit visibly irked as he snapped at Lisa, asking her why she didn’t bring it up until now.
Craig Tinker was tasked with compiling a list of all the red vehicles in the area at time.
But in shock scenes, Kit was caught deleting his car registration from the list back at the station.
