ITV Coronation Street fans fear that Stu Carpenter will be accidently killed off by local thug after getting caught up in conflict.
Coronation Street fans are speculating that Stu Carpenter, played by Bill Fellows, will meet a tragic end at the hands of Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan).
As regular viewers will recall, Mason was previously sent to a young offenders institution for threatening Liam Connor (Charlie Wrenshall) with a knife.
During the court proceedings, Dylan Wilson (Liam Mccheyne) courageously testified against Mason despite his fear of the bully. However, since Mason’s release and return to Weatherfield, he has been causing trouble, leaving both Liam and Dylan unnerved.
In contrast, Stu Carpenter has shown sympathy towards Mason, even securing him a job at his restaurant. This decision sparked outrage among some residents of Weatherfield.
Despite this, Stu maintained that he saw potential in Mason and wanted to offer him a chance at redemption. Mason has also formed a bond with Betsy Swain (Sydney Martin), the daughter of DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers).
Recently, it was announced that actor Bill Fellows would be leaving his role as Stu, leading viewers to speculate about his exit storyline – and it doesn’t look promising, reports the Manchester Evening News.
According to fan theories on Reddit, Mason may find himself in hot water again, attempting to stab either Liam or Dylan, with Stu tragically caught in the crossfire.
Coronation Street fan theories are swirling about Mason Radcliffe’s next move on the Cobbles, with one viewer speculating on social media: “Does anyone think Mason will kill Stu”, prompting another to respond: “I hope not. I do believe he wants to change. However, we know that something ‘big’ will happen. Maybe Mason tries to stab Dylan/ Liam/ Betsy, Stu steps in and dies.”
Others are discussing the potential for Stu Carpenter to find himself embroiled in youth drama, with a fan stating: “Maybe Stu will be in the crossfires of the teenage drama and Mason will try to save his life.”
Meanwhile, over on X, a Corrie enthusiast pointed out past plot points saying: “Mason was arrested for bullying including pulling a knife on Liam. So obviously Stu’s now offered him a job in a kitchen… cutting stuff. Amazing. This is going to end well. #corrie.”
The speculation doesn’t stop there, with fans connecting recent character departures to the unfolding storyline, as one remarked: “It was confirmed today that Stu is leaving – I wonder if his exit is linked to Mason? #Corrie“.
