\t\t\"DS
\n\t\tDS Connor-Swain is on the case (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

On the hunt for Theo Silverton<\/a>\u2019s (James Cartwright<\/a>) murderer, DS Lisa Connor-Swain<\/a>\u00a0(Vicky Myers<\/a>)\u00a0slaps the hand-cuffs on one unlucky Coronation Street<\/a> resident\u2026 who isn\u2019t even a suspect!<\/p>\n

Nobody in Weatherfield is shedding a tear over the death of an abusive monster like Theo, but Lisa\u2019s got her own reasons for wanting this murder solved<\/a>. <\/p>\n

A) She\u2019s a police officer, and B) the discovery of a dead body on her wedding day<\/a> kind of killed the whole vibe.<\/p>\n

With the assistance of her colleague\u00a0Kit Green<\/a>\u00a0(Jacob Roberts<\/a>)\u00a0Lisa is sifting through six major subjects<\/a> in an attempt to discover who killed one of the most hated villains to ever walk the Cobbles.<\/p>\n

Number one on the list is Todd Grimshaw<\/a> (Gareth Pierce<\/a>), the long suffering husband of Theo who endured just about every kind of abuse there is thanks to the raging narcissist.<\/p>\n

However, so far Lisa has taken a particular interest in interviewing Summer Spellman<\/a>\u00a0(Harriet Bibby<\/a>), who lost her adoptive stepdad Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) thanks to Theo<\/a>. And boy, does she love to write about it. Her journal is full of fantasies about holding a gun to Theo\u2019s head.<\/p>\n

On the other hand,\u00a0Kit\u2019s got his sights on Gary Windass<\/a>\u00a0(Mikey North<\/a>), Theo\u2019s ex best mate and boss who doesn\u2019t take kindly for bullies\u2026 because he\u2019s already put one in the ground. With that in mind, the fact that the CCTV caught him bashing Theo\u2019s van with a sledgehammer hours before he dieddoesn\u2019t look too good for the badboy builder<\/p>\n

\t\t\"Summer

Then there\u2019s a man who is all too familiar with death, the local undertaker \u00a0George Shuttleworth<\/a>\u00a0(Tony Maudsley<\/a>). He loves Todd like a son, and was the first to see Theo for the monster he truly was<\/a>. <\/p>\n

The friendliest coffin merchant in Manchester was the first to be arrested for the murder, after Lisa found a bloodstained jumper at the funeral parlour. He was released soon after, but there\u2019s still the matter of that \u2018midnight constitutional\u2019 he took on the evening of Theo\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s not forget his partner, Christina Boyd<\/a>\u00a0(Amy Robbins<\/a>). Is she covering for George\u2026 or for herself?<\/p>\n

Finally there\u2019s the bitter ex wife, Danielle Silverton (Natalie Anderson)<\/a> who has good reason to be bitter. Theo left her and their two kids<\/a> to start a new life with Todd.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She might have come back to buy flowers for her not-so-dearly departed husband and bond with Todd over their shared marriage misery, but it won\u2019t stop her from accusing Todd of killing Theo for the life insurance\u2026 right before Ryan Connor<\/a>\u00a0(Ryan Prescott<\/a>) reveals how he saw her at the crime scene on the night Theo was killed<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Now that Danielle\u2019s in the frame, the investigations of DS Connor- Swain (now there\u2019s a spin-off for you, ITV) take a shocking turn in upcoming episodes of Coronation Street when she\u2019s faced with the possibility of a brand new suspect.<\/p>\n

After Ryan\u2019s revelation regarding Danielle\u2019s whereabouts during the night of the murder, Lisa tells Todd she\u2019s interviewed Danielle. But how did it go?<\/p>\n

In the visiting room, a distressed Summer reveals to Todd that she\u2019s considering pleading guilty to manslaughter as it seems her only option. <\/p>\n

Heartbroken for Summer, Todd asks Lisa if he can have his phone back from the police now \u2013 but her response floors Todd. What did Lisa say?<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Lisa talks to Carla Connor-Swain<\/a> (Alison King<\/a>)\u00a0about her new boss and how she\u2019s happy to let Summer take the rap for Theo\u2019s murder without looking further afield.<\/p>\n

However, it looks like there\u2019s been a breakthrough when Todd\u2019s phone is found at a pawn shop. Lisa orders it to be sent to Forensics\u2026<\/p>\n

\u2026 and to everyone\u2019s surprise, Lisa arrives and arrests local likely lad Brody Michaelis<\/a>\u00a0(Ryan Mulvey<\/a>) on suspicion of theft!<\/p>\n

Sally and\u00a0Tim Metcalfe<\/a>\u00a0(Sally Dynevor<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Joe Duttine<\/a>) can only watch in horror as Lisa leads a protesting Brody to her car, after Forensics found his fingerprints all over Todd\u2019s phone. Kit listens with concern.<\/p>\n

Can Brody explain himself or is he in the frame for Theo\u2019s murder?<\/p>\n
