Coronation Street's Fiz Stape is to be charged with three murders in a forthcoming storyline twist, show producer Phil Collinson has confirmed.

The devoted mum, played by Jennie McAlpine, will face trial later this year after the authorities decide that she must have been involved in her husband John's crime spree.

Coronation Street viewers have recently seen Fiz charged with fraud as her decision to steal Joy Fishwick's inheritance caught up with her. However, Collinson told This Morning today that things will soon get much worse.

"Well, I'm afraid Fiz is going to jail. Fiz is going to be remanded in custody quite soon and she actually gets charged with three murders," he explained.

"Her murder trial is going to come up across the autumn. There's lots of twists and turns still to play out with that story."

Fiz only recently became aware of the fact that John had been involved in the deaths of Joy, Colin Fishwick and Charlotte Hoyle. However, in an explosive week of episodes earlier this month, she incriminated herself by helping to move Colin's body.

As John recently disappeared from Weatherfield, Fiz has been left to face the consequences of his dark crimes.

Last month, reports suggested that Fiz would decide to hand her baby daughter Hope over to Roy and Hayley Cropper as she faced time behind bars.


Noooo Fiz can't go down. Do we think John will hear about this and make a final surprise appearance?
