It had to happen eventually. No serial killer in Coronation Street has ever managed to get away with their crimes and Stephen Reid (Todd Boyce) was never going to be an exception. We knew he would get his comeuppance eventually, we just didn\u2019t know when or how.<\/p>\n
We still don\u2019t know exactly when or how, but the net is certainly closing in on Audrey Roberts (Sue Nicholls)\u2019 eldest after the body of his first victim, Leo Thompkins (Joe Frost), was recently found at the building site.<\/p>\n
Stephen killed Leo when he got close to the truth about Stephen trying to swindle Audrey out of her money, and since then he\u2019s been busy weaving an ever more elaborate web of lies to cover his tracks, beginning with trying to make out that Leo had gone to Canada.<\/p>\n

When Leo\u2019s dad Teddy (Grant Burgin) began to realise that Stephen might be behind his son\u2019s disappearance, Stephen killed him, too. Teddy\u2019s body hasn\u2019t so far been found, but Stephen has started to get worried that it, too, might resurface from the canal where he disposed of it hidden inside the roof box from Audrey\u2019s car.<\/p>\n
Grieving over Leo\u2019s death, in upcoming episodes Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) wonders whether she should pay a visit to his dad Teddy. She reasons that he must be grief stricken \u2013 and then has the realisation that it\u2019s very odd he hasn\u2019t been in touch about Leo\u2019s death and plans for the funeral.<\/p>\n

Stephen understandably tries to steer her away from this line of thinking, but Jenny\u2019s not to be deterred. Now fearing that something has happened to Teddy she goes to the police and tells Craig (Colson Smith) she\u2019s seriously concerned about Teddy.<\/p>\n
The police soon confirm that she\u2019s right to have contacted them. DS Swain calls to say that they have proof that neither Leo nor Teddy ever visited Canada. This surprises Jenny, as she tells them that Teddy must have been in Canada because he contacted Stephen from there.<\/p>\n
With Teddy now a missing person and Stephen\u2019s name linked to the mystery of why Teddy appeared to be communicating from a place he never went to, Stephen is starting to seriously sweat.<\/p>\n
With Todd Boyce\u2019s exit already confirmed as he\u2019s finished filming, the scene is set for things to unravel for Stephen very quickly \u2013 and spectacularly \u2013 in the coming weeks.<\/p>\n
