In Coronation Street, Ronnie Bailey has been at the centre of speculation after he was thrown into the Joel murder investigation.
During last night’s episode (Wednesday, October 16) viewers were treated with a series of flashbacks which gave a clue as to how Joel died.
Police are exploring all leads, but a social media fan thinks they’ve figured it out. They say Dee-Dee is behind the murder and Ronnie will take the fall.

Ronnie has been in the spotlight before after he and Ed previously stepped in when they noticed Joel pestering Dee-Dee on the Street. Together they conspired to potentially harm Joel to warn him to stay away.
We discovered that a crowbar is the likely weapon used to kill Joel. And, it seems a likely tool the brothers would have, with their manual labour jobs. Last night, Dee-Dee and Ronnie enjoyed a drink with DS Lisa Swain.
However, they were interrupted by an argumentative Betsy, who stormed into the pub and spotted her mum. There, she shouted at her about Mason, who was earlier taken into questioning after being spotted trying to ditch a crowbar.
When Lisa went after her daughter, Dee-Dee filled Ronnie in on the investigation and revealed a crowbar is now being explored. Ronnie appeared to look guilty and stared off into the distance. Viewers then saw a flashback of someone rummaging through tools to find a crowbar, which they then held up, presumably Ronnie.
