Joel's body is found as a murder investigation is launched in Corrie

Could, Mason, Ronnie or Ed be responsible?

12-18 OCTOBER

When Craig and Kit study CCTV from a train station car park, they see Joel and then his dad around a locker. Interviewing Gus, Kit demands some answers.

Meanwhile, on a riverbank, three lads spot a body floating in the water and Craig approaches Lisa and Kit to announce that they have found his body.

As Kit steals himself to break the news to Dee Dee and Lauren at the hospital, Lisa breaks the news to people in the Rovers.

Calling back at the hospital, Kit tells Lauren that the post mortem revealed that Joel was dead before he entered the river so they’re now looking at a murder investigation. Who could be responsible?

Whilst Kit questions Lauren about where she was on the night of Joel’s death, the 27th September, Dee-Dee tells Ed and Ronnie that Joel was murdered.

Later, Kit reveals to Lisa that Joel died from two blows to the head, inflicted by a heavy weapon, most likely a crowbar.

Meanwhile, Stu is angry with Yasmeen when Mason reveals the special worker has found him somewhere to live. How will Yasmeen react when Stu tells her that he's thinking of moving to Germany to be with Eliza and Dom?

Shocked to discover from Yasmeen that she threw Mason out because he had a crowbar, Lisa tells Betsy to stay away from him. Intrigued, Betsy warns Mason that the police are onto him.

Behind the factory, Mason disposes of the crowbar in a bin but is caught in the act by Kit. Dee-Dee explains to Ronnie that the police believe Joel was attacked with a crowbar.

Meanwhile, after rumbling Debbie’s plan for a surprise party to mark his 55th birthday, Ronnie's good mood falters when Kit and a colleague arrive to question him and Ed.

Whilst Ronnie insists he was home alone the night Joel went missing, Ed claims he was at No.3 with Dee-Dee and Michael. And Ronnie explains he last used the satnav when he and Michael helped Joel move out of his flat ages ago.
