Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.

Looks like all the murdering on the cobbles isn’t ending any time soon, as it has emerged that one of Coronation Street’s most prominent characters will be the next victim of Corrie killer Pat Phelan.

The Sun claims that Michelle Connor, played by former singer Kym Marsh, is set to become the serial killer’s fifth victim.

They reckon that she will die after being shot on her ­wedding day in an episode that will likely be aired after the watershed.

A source told The Sun: “The scenes were shot last week and are more like a horror film than a soap.

“Phelan will come back to Weatherfield and crash Michelle and Robert’s wedding day. In all the carnage, she will end up being shot with ­Robert trying desperately to save her life before she bleeds out.

“Inevitably, the other guests will be involved in the madness too in the ­aftermath of him ­shooting her.

“The scenes are so gruesome ITV bosses have decided to play them after 9pm so they don’t fall foul of any rules.”

And there could possibly be a few more victims before the baddie meets his end, according to Connor McIntyre, the actor who plays Phelan, at least.

In an interview with Metro, Connor said: “Let’s just say this – he soon comes to the conclusion that he has got very little left to lose. Bearing in mind his mindset – it’s true to say that everybody, even the people you wouldn’t expect, need to watch out.”

The horror, the horror.
