Coronation Street drops crucial clue DS Swain killed Joel Deering in grim discovery
Soap fans have tried to figure out who could have killed Joel Deering as many suspects have been pointed out. But in upcoming scenes, incriminating evidence points to Lisa Swain.
Lisa Swain is one of the latest suspects to be considered for the murder of Joel Deering and one piece of evidence could seal her downfall.
While her blossoming connection with Carla Connor (Alison King) has left Coronation Street fans rooting for the potential couple, the detective played by Vicky Myers is one of the most likely residents to have committed the sinister deed on September 27, 2024.
Though she tried for several months to bring the duty solicitor to justice, her daughter Betsy’s (Sydney Martin) connection to Joel made things particularly difficult and in scenes due to air on ITV, she is confronted by none other than Kit Green (Jacob Roberts), who reveals incriminating evidence linking her to Joel’s death has been found on her personal mobile phone.

Lisa has recently vowed to take some time off from her job to spend more time with Betsy but when she is summoned to the Weatherfield police station, she is shocked to find out Kit doesn’t intend to have a “friendly chat” with her as he makes it clear: “I need to ask you a few questions on record.”
Kit then reveals that Lisa’s mobile phone has been analysed and the search has highlighted a text message, composed but never sent, which was intended for Joel Deering. The message read: “stay away from my daughter or I will be the end of you”, making it clear that Lisa may have wanted to kill Joel. But will she be confirmed as the killer, particularly after Kit was revealed to be up to no good?
The shady detective was seen deleting important evidence that could shine a light to his own involvement in Joel Deering’s murder during this Friday’s (November 1) trip to the cobbles and viewers were immediately convinced they’d found the real culprit.
Viewers at home swarmed to Twitter, now X, to share their thoughts as they put two and two together, with one of them penning: “aaaaand nobody is surprised that kit is a bent copper. we literally saw it before with sarah planting evidence and the dodgy t-shirts lol could see that coming from a mile away #corrie”
Another added: “#Corrie I’m confused, was it’s Kit’s red car?”, while a third echoed: “So, Kit killed Joel?” A fourth chimed in: “Kit’s just deleted his own name off the vehicle records.”
“Sooooo Kit has a red car… knew he had something to do with it..”, another commented. “I said weeks ago that I reckon Kit was involved and tonight’s episode has definitely made me think that I could be right with my wild theory”, one final fan wrote. Could Kit decide to frame Lisa Swain for the murder to cover his tracks? Is he really guilty?
