In new scenes tonight, Kit confides in his girlfriend Sarah Barlow<\/a> about how he recently investigated a case and realised it was linked to a historic one that Lisa Swain’s late wife once worked on.<\/p>\n

Kit requested access to Becky’s files at the time, but Costello blocked him and warned him to leave it alone.<\/p>\n

Costello puts Kit on desk duties until the dust settles, but advises him to make out that it’s because of his recent injuries, which will avoid a formal inquiry.<\/p>\n

Suspiciously, Costello seems more annoyed that Kit got caught out for corrupt behaviour when he targeted Eli, rather than the incident itself.<\/p>\n

But could Kit’s boss have something else to hide too? When Costello continues to give him a hard time, Kit can’t resist biting back by hinting that he has some dirt on him.<\/p>\n

As Costello describes himself as “a man of integrity” with “nothing to hide”, Kit scoffs: “Not strictly true that, is it, sir?”<\/p>\n

Costello replies: “Tread carefully, DC Green…”<\/p>\n

Will Costello’s secrets play a role in the larger mystery over whether Becky was engaged in corrupt behaviour at work? Only time will tell.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
