Coronation Street fans predict the return of murderous Tracy

As the latest episode aired, Coronation Street fans shared their suspicions that the Institute’s interest in Amy could prove to be Rowan’s downfall.

‘If I was Rowan and drained Tracy’s mum’s money and took advantage of Amy’s vulnerability I wouldn’t stand near any ornaments,’ joked one viewer.

‘Ooh, I hope Tracy kills him,’ said another.

‘Maybe Rowan exits after being hit over the head with a blunt instrument,’ a third fan agreed.

‘She’ll beat him up and Steve will take the blame to show his love or something like that,’ another suggested.
