Corrie fans ‘rumble’ Stephen Reid's ‘return from the dead’ in Christmas twist

New picture appears to show how Peter Barlow will leave Weatherfield this Christmas. It comes after Chris Gascoyne confirmed he'd be leaving Coronation Street after an on-off appearance over 23 years.

After a tense few weeks saw serial killer Stephen Reid finally meet his maker after being run over on Coronation Street, soap fans were finally given one bit of good news on Wednesday’s visit to the cobbles, when driver Peter Barlow was finally given the all clear by the police. As regular viewers will know, Peter Barlow ploughed his car into the murderer as he held Jenny Connor hostage during super soap week, killing him instantly - with the character’s future hanging in the balance as he faced a potential murder charge himself.

Coronation Street star Cherylee Houston has jokingly shared her relief at the Stephen Reid storyline coming to an end with her character unscathed. The actress will be known to fans of the ITV soap for playing Izzy Armstrong.
