Coronation Street has confirmed a big move for fans of the show which can be seen once Joel Deering's killer has been unmasked.
The official end of the solicitor is now in sight following Weatherfield's biggest-ever whodunnit. As fans of the ITV soap know, Joel, played by Calum Lill, first went missing at the end of September.
The news was revealed when he failed to show up to court where it was thought that he'd face comeuppance for some of his twisted crimes.
A warrant was issued for Joel's arrest but, after transferring money to Lauren Bolton, his grooming victim and now the mother of his son Frankie, and his ex-wife Emily, as well leaving an emotional voicemail for his former fiancée Dee-Dee Bailey, Joel's car was found abandoned and it was believed Joel may have taken his own life.
