Coronation Street fans are predicting that Kit Green, played by Jacob Roberts, might end up murdering a beloved resident of the Cobbles.

The crooked copper arrived in Weatherfield as Bernie Winter’s (Jane Hazlegrove) long-lost son earlier this year. Bernie had given up Christopher ‘Kit’ Green for adoption nearly three decades ago.

After tracking him down a few months back, Kit wanted nothing to do with her. Meanwhile, Bernie’s twins Gemma (Dolly-Rose Campbell) and Paul (Peter Ash) were shocked to discover they had another sibling.
