Coronation Street: Stephen goes on the attack again
Episode 11,079 – 11,080 | Airs Monday 09 October 2023 at 20:00 on ITV1
As a new day dawns in Weatherfield, Stephen is planning his escape from the cobbles and the trail of dead bodies. He's unaware that the residents of Coronation Street are putting together the pieces of the puzzle.
As he slowly realises that his time might be up, and with nothing to lose, Stephen determines to make a final bid for freedom and will stop anyone that gets in his way.
A frustrated Carla is convinced Stephen dosed her up on LSD, but without evidence, the police can't prove it.
When Carla finds a print-out of one-way tickets to Thailand in the office printer, she convinces DS Swain that Stephen is a flight risk. Ignoring Swain's insistence that she tell no-one, Carla explains to Jenny that the police are investigating Stephen and implores her not to go to Thailand with him, as she could be running off with a murderer.
Meanwhile, Tim is distracted from Sally's plans for their wedding anniversary when a passing mention from Brian of Stephen's interest in the canal dredging project gets the cogs whirring.
On the canal towpath, Tim finds a discarded boat hook and starts poking about in the water when a corpse's hand floats to the surface. Fleeing back to his cab, Tim dials 999 and reports finding a dead body. But the phone cuts out and before he can call back, Tim's aghast when Stephen climbs into the back seat of the cab.
As Stephen tries to strangle him with a tie, Tim makes a bid for freedom but trips on his shoelace and, as he clambers to his feet, he's knocked unconscious by Stephen with a brick.
As a furious Sally assumes that Tim has gone to the County match with Kevin, her husband is actually fighting for his life in the boot of his car which is being doused in petrol. Has Stephen killed again?
A seemingly calm and collected Stephen arrives back on the cobbles smoothly bypassing Jenny and heads straight for a shower to wash away all traces of blood and fuel before calling the airline to confirm his flight for tomorrow.
Meanwhile, police lift the roof box from the murky waters of the canal. Craig and Swain shudder to see it contains human remains.
