Corrie fans think they’ve found proof that Phelan is still alive

The death of Coronation Street uber-bastard, Pat Phelan, has been a long time coming.

Having bumped off a number of his fellow characters, the latest serial killer to walk the cobbles finally appeared to meet his end during last week - plunging to his death off the side of a harbour after a bust-up with his Mrs, Eileen. (Oh, and don't come at us with any of that 'spoilers' shit now, you've had long enough over the Easter weekend to catch up.) The thing is, it's taken so long for Phelan to be killed off, plenty of the show's viewers are having trouble believing he actually has popped his clogs. Its timing sparked a bizarre Jesusy-type Easter Sunday resurrection theory over the weekend. This, somewhat disappointingly, doesn't appear to have been the case - though this hasn't put an end to Corrie fans' speculation that Phelan might somehow have cheated his watery death... Having watched the first of Monday night's double-header, viewers were adamant Phelan was still alive (if not entirely well) with his body yet to have been recovered from the sea. https://twitter.com/G00NERJOKER/status/980877620828168192 https://twitter.com/Joshy_Bish/status/980877397774843905 https://twitter.com/AckworthMichael/status/980885539854438404 https://twitter.com/JosieTofficial/status/980883437308522496 https://twitter.com/MissFee85/status/980882562146029571 https://twitter.com/CROSSSTICHER1/status/980883531286106113 Just when you thought it was over, eh?
