Coronation Street fans urge Stephen to kill ‘dull’ Elaine next

Viewers have ideas as to who Stephen should kill next

Following last night’s Coronation Street, viewers issued serial killer Stephen Reid a chilling request – begging for him to kill ‘dull’ fiancée Elaine Jones next.

Stephen proposed to Elaine as the result of an accidental LSD trip.

This came as his plan to drug boss Carla out of her position at Underworld backfired.

Coronation Street viewers beseech Stephen to kill Elaine

As last night’s episode aired, fans made their bizarre request of Stephen.

Writing on Twitter, they begged him to kill off fiancée Elaine.

“Just me hoping Stephen bumps off the dull and very boring Elaine?” wondered one fan.

“Wish Stephen would do us all a favour and kill Elaine,” said another.

“Okay, so if we have to endure the Stephen story can he please bump of Elaine,” another wrote.

“Elaine shut up, I hate you so much – Stephen kill this woman in cold blood right now,” a fourth fan said.

Following his accidental engagement, Stephen tells Elaine that he’d rather keep their announcement secret.

He suggests that it would be better to enjoy their news in private.
