Sarah Platt killed Theo Silverton in a huge Coronation Street twist that aired on Monday (June 22), but could the truth soon come back to haunt her?
In tonight’s episode (Tuesday, June 23), Gary admitted to Sarah that he hadn’t gone through with telling Maria what really happened. But there was another shock in store when Todd became convinced that Gary was Theo’s killer, completely unaware of what had actually taken place.
With Sarah now carrying the weight of a deadly secret, fans have already started sharing their predictions for what might happen next. Here are five theories on where the storyline could be heading.

Coronation Street Sarah Theo murder theory 1. Sarah going to prison
One major theory is that Sarah’s actions could eventually catch up with her, resulting in a prison sentence.
Actress Tina O’Brien recently hinted that this outcome could be on the cards, explaining: “She could be going to prison this time. If she’d have called the police straight away and explained what happened, she would have been in a much better situation, because it was clearly not pre meditated, it was a situation where she felt she had no other choice. But to cover it up, to actively cover something up, she knows that she crossed a line that she can’t come back from.”
A fan also posed the question online: “Will Sarah go to prison for killing Theo?”
2. Gary taking responsibility
Gary has already shown just how far he’s prepared to go for Sarah, even helping to cover up a murder.
Given his own dark past, some viewers think Gary could decide to take the blame himself. If that happened, Sarah could avoid punishment while Gary finally faces consequences for his previous actions.
One worried fan wrote on X: “I hope Gary isn’t gonna take the rap for Sarah.”
