Maggie 'dead' in Coronation Street after deadly Megan showdown

Maggie Driscoll isn’t out of the woods yet… (Picture: ITV) Coronation Street has finally confirmed which local villain has hit the end of the road – but that doesn’t mean that Maggie Driscoll (Pauline McLynn) is completely out of the woods… Maggie was in the frame to be killed off in Corrie’s first flash forward storyline, alongside Theo Silverton (James Cartwright), Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard), Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances-Brown) and Megan Walsh (Beth Nixon). In tonight’s episode, it was finally revealed that Theo was the one to have been killed, after months spent terrorising husband Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce). However, Maggie is also in a worrying position, having been left for dead after a showdown with Megan. Megan and Maggie have been at each other’s throats this week, and the tension between them reached fever pitch. Maggie has been determined to see Megan face justice for her grooming of Will Driscoll (Lucas Hodgson-Wale), but Megan has so far managed to wriggle out of taking any responsibility. Megan Walsh and Maggie had a dramatic showdown (Picture: ITV) To make matters even worse, Megan overheard a conversation between Maggie and Melanie and learnt the truth about the death of Maggie’s husband. Viewers may recall the flashback episode that aired last year, which revealed that Maggie had pushed him down the stairs. ‘It was a tragic accident when Maggie’s husband fell so tragically down the stairs and died [laughs],’ actress Pauline McLynn said. ‘The line had been put in you know, “I can, I’ve done it before”. At this stage, I don’t mind if people do think it’s murder. She’s so far put to the pin of her collar, why not?’ However, it seems that Maggie may have got a taste of her own medicine, as we last saw her lying motionless below the balcony, where she and Megan had been arguing. Is Maggie also dead? (Picture: ITV) Is she set to be another victim? Is Megan to blame? Could Corrie be giving us a massive twist by killing off two of their villains and making another a killer?
