Coronation Street boss Kate Oates has revealed that Pat Phelan will get his comeuppance later this year.

Killer Phelan – who has been responsible for the deaths of Andy Carver, Vinny Ashford and Luke Britton – will finally meet his own maker after a demise triggered by his world falling apart.

Oates told Radio Times: “Connor [McIntyre] is so up for this challenge. He’s so excited about it and he’s playing it brilliantly.

“What I like about Phelan’s downfall is that it’s very much to do with Eileen. It’s to do with her realising who she’s married.

“It’s to do with Nicola [Rubinstein] and that child. You’ve got the high drama balanced out with the emotional family domestic drama, which is when I think Corrie is at its best.”

She added: “There’ll be a few twists and turns – we have some stunts coming up, which will be exciting.”
