Lisa and Kit Close in on the Truth

Coronation Street is heating up as viewers grow more suspicious of DI Costello’s true role in Becky Swain’s tragic death. Fans have long speculated that Costello’s avoidance of the case was more than professional distance. Now, recent events suggest he may be directly responsible for covering up the truth — and even orchestrating Becky’s demise.

When Lisa Swain and DC Kit Green began digging deeper, they uncovered fresh leads pointing back to Costello. Despite their boss’s attempts to steer them away from Becky’s case, the pair kept pushing. Kit’s determination only added to Costello’s concern, setting the stage for an explosive confrontation.

The Tia Wardley Twist

The mystery deepened when Carla Connor first uncovered the name “Tia Wardley” from Logan Radcliffe in prison. Carla hoped this clue would finally give Lisa answers about Becky’s death. However, Logan’s refusal to share more without a £10,000 payoff cast doubt on his motives.

When Tia Wardley appeared at the Bistro during Lisa and Carla’s engagement celebration, it seemed the mystery was solved. Tia revealed that Becky once helped her escape the Radcliffe brothers’ criminal influence, which satisfied Lisa — at least for the moment. But Kit remained cautious, asking whether Tia had ever heard of DI Costello. Tia denied it outright.

Fans Spot the Lies

Moments later, the truth was revealed. Tia was seen climbing into Costello’s car, demanding her payment for pretending to be Becky’s associate. She bragged about her performance, leaving viewers shocked. It was now clear that Costello had orchestrated the deception, paying Tia to mislead Lisa and Kit.

This revelation has fueled speculation online, with fans taking to social media to share their theories. Many are convinced that Costello arranged Becky’s death to silence her before she could expose his corruption.

Viewers Call Out Costello’s Corruption

Fans have been quick to connect the dots. Several believe Costello was tied to the Radcliffe brothers’ operations and that Becky was dangerously close to uncovering the truth. By staging her death and framing her as corrupt, he protected both himself and his reputation.

On X (formerly Twitter), one viewer wrote: “Costello is bent as a five bob note. Wouldn’t put it past him to have orchestrated Becky’s death.” Another added: “He was the one who hit Becky with the car.”

Others suggest an even bigger twist: Becky may have been undercover, using the name Tia, and Costello eliminated her when she got too close. Whatever the truth, fans are united in their belief that Costello is hiding something monumental.

What Happens Next?

The storyline is now racing toward a major showdown. Lisa and Kit are edging closer to uncovering the web of lies, while Costello grows increasingly desperate to cover his tracks. With Carla, Lisa, and even Kit circling around him, it seems inevitable that his corruption will be exposed.

Will Lisa discover that her boss was behind Becky’s death? Will Kit be able to prove Costello’s ties to the Radcliffe brothers before it’s too late? One thing is certain: fans are bracing for shocking revelations that could forever change the Swain family’s story.
