As Kit’s revealed as Mal’s attacker, here’s whether Jacob Roberts is leaving the soap

In tonight’s episode of Coronation Street (Friday, February 27), viewers finally saw DC Kit Green unmasked as the man who attacked Mal Roper – a twist that could put his whole life on the cobbles at risk.
Right now, there’s only one person carrying that explosive secret. Kit’s partner Sarah Platt knows exactly what he did. But with the walls already starting to close in, it feels like only a matter of time before the truth spreads and the consequences follow.

Kit confessed everything to Sarah
Kit Green’s guilt reached boiling point tonight, and when it did, Sarah got the full, unfiltered confession.
While Bernie Winter spent the night in a police cell after being arrested at Roy’s Rolls on suspicion of attacking Mal, the real culprit was still walking free – and flashing his police badge. CCTV footage later confirmed Bernie had been drinking in the café, clearing her name and securing her release. That only piled more pressure onto Kit.
All day long, Kit loudly defended his mum’s innocence, even as it became obvious his head wasn’t fully on the job. When he finally got home, it didn’t take much to push him over the edge. As soon as Sarah suggested Bernie might have been responsible for Mal’s hospitalisation, Kit snapped – and the truth came pouring out. Bernie didn’t touch Mal. Kit did.
He admitted confronting Mal, grabbing him, shoving him and warning him to stay away from Bernie. It was a split-second, protective reaction that spiralled into something far more serious than he ever expected, with Mal suffering a heart attack in the aftermath.
Sarah quickly pointed out that Kit’s actions may have made Bernie’s situation much worse, prompting him to head towards the police station ready to confess. But with Bernie already cleared, Kit’s secret stayed buried – at least for now.
That said, with Lisa Swain determined to ‘catch the bad guy,’ it’s hard to believe Kit can stay in the clear forever.
