Coronation Street could be set for explosive scenes next week as cobbles killer, Stephen Reid, is confronted by businessman Owen.

In a spoiler video, it sees Stephen furious when Owen accuses him of using Seagull Ltd to siphon money from the Underworld factory and pining after Jenny Connor.

Stephen tries to deny the accusations as his fists clench but Owen’s not listening.

In the scene, Stephen tries to sell himself as a successful businessman to which Owen says: "The thing is, Stephen, I'm just really not buying this respectable businessman shtick anymore.

"I don't trust you and I don't trust what you've been up to at the factory either. I wanted to buy that place as a nest egg for me, for my future. But it is sounding more and more dodgy."

Stephen is left outraged as his fists clench and he responds: "I don't know what you mean."

Owen replies: "Oh, Seagull Ltd, for a start. I don't think it exists, I think you created it to siphon off factory money for yourself and I'm sure you've got some very clever little answer but to me that is sounding more and more fishy.

"I should have stepped away when you were stirring things with me and Jenny…"

Stephen fires back with: "That was all just a misunderstanding…"

But Owen hits back: "There is only one reason why someone would want to push two people apart like that and that's because you want her all for yourself…"

With Stephen clenching his fists again as he declares: "No, you're wrong…"

Could Stephen be set to kill again and could Owen be his next victim?

Viewers will recall that Stephen has been on a killing spree on the cobbles – first murdering Jenny's fiancé Leo Thompkins in 2022.

Next up was Leo's father, Teddy, who became suspicious about Stephen and suspected he had murdered his son.

Stephen's latest victim was businessman Rufus, who was blackmailing him after discovering he was spiking Carla Barlow with LSD.

More recently, Stephen tried to murder Elaine Metcalfe, who he has a life insurance policy on, by spiking her tea and replacing her blood pressure pills with caffeine pills.

A jittery and dizzy Elaine then stumbled and hit her head, leaving her unconscious, as Stephen left her lifeless body on the floor. However, thankfully, she made a full recovery but is still none the wiser to evil Stephen.

Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV.
