Coronation Street: Peter Barlow punches his surgeon
Coronation Street fans have been less than impressed as they figure out how Peter Barlow (played by Chris Gascoyne) will leave the cobbles.
Last week, viewers watched as Stephen Reid’s (Todd Boyce) reign of terror finally came to an end.
As his lies, schemes and crimes came to light, the killer was corned by the Weatherfield residents as he tried to make one last desperate attempt to flee.
Holding Jenny Connor (Sally Ann Matthews) hostage, fans feared her life was in danger before Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) saved his life.
Running Stephen down with his car, viewers watched in disbelief as the murderer was carried away in a body bag.

Although Peter saved Jenny’s life, Stephen’s mother Audrey Roberts (Sue Nicholls) has been left distraught as her son is now dead and believes Peter plotted to kill him.
At the end of the episode, fans were left outraged as he was arrested for the murder of Stephen as many took to Twitter to fear for Peter’s future.
With the soap star’s exit imminent on the show, people believe this is the start of his exit.

@NoniFlax101 added: “Poor Peter – I absolutely hate this!!”

@BernieTucker66 tweeted: “Have they forgotten Stephen killed 3 people, they’re making him look like an angel. So Peter will go down for killing a murderer.”
@niallhoran said: “They can’t seriously send Peter to jail for killing the serial killer.”
@markscottsmith shared: “Free Peter Barlow!”
However, @homebrew19721 believes he’ll make a quick escape as they suggested: “I’m calling it. Peter will do a runner abroad like Stacey Slater did on #eastenders after she killed Archie Mitchell.”
Speaking about the turn of events, soap star Chris teased that Peter’s decision to run Stephen over is going to take its toll.
He said: “This is where Stephen’s story ends and mine picks up.
“Peter is a man who is in deep conflict with himself. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter how it happened, he has killed someone.
“It is impossible to imagine what that must feel like. Could you ever rest, could you sleep. He actually says, ‘I have taken another human being out of this world forever, what kind of person does that? What does that make me?’ And he is terrified.”
Coronation Street continues Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV from 8pm
