Coronation Street fans 'work out' Becky twist after Lisa Swain discovery and say 'they've known all along'

Coronation Street fans think DS Lisa Swain's latest discovery about her late partner will lead to what really happened to Becky. It was earlier this year that viewers discovered that Lisa's late partner was killed in the line of duty.

The pair share a daughter, Betsy, and it's been clear that Lisa and the teen's relationship hasn't been perfect since Becky's death. But fans of the ITV soap are now seeing Lisa tentitively embark on a new romance with Carla Connor, which caught Betsy off-guard.

But Becky's death looks set to continue haunting both Lisa and Betsy as new details seemingly came to light. During Wednesday night's (November 27) episode of Corrie, viewers saw Lisa spending the night by Carla's bedside willing her to wake up after she was hit over the head during a break in at the factory.

As viewers know, Betsy was seen trying to help pal Mason Radcliffe by getting his brothers, Matty and Logan, off his back as they start to spread their terrorisation across the street.

She told Mason that his troublesome brothers were no longer a concern due to a deal she had made with them. It was later revealed that Betsy had set it up so that the brothers could burgle the knicker factory in exchange for leaving Mason alone.

But the brothers ended up attacking Carla, who was rushed to hospital and had to have surgery to stop a bleed on her brain, leaving her loved ones worried sick. However, within the blink of an eye, Carla seemingly appeared on the mend, even managing to have a joke with Roy Cropper about her feelings for Lisa.

However, amidst worrying about Carla, and being determined to find who was responsible, including dragging Matty in for questioning, Lisa was triggered as the youth brought up her late partner after providing an alabi for the time of the attack on Carla, therefore being let free from the station.

As expected, Lisa snapped and was later seen looking emotionally drained as she spoke to DC Kit Green about her suspicions that there was more to Matty's comment then just a cruel jibe.

Taking to social media, Corrie fans were quick to share their theories and think Matty and Logan knew all about Betsy before even meeting her. @xKellieLou said: "Why do I think Mason's brothers are involved in Becky's death and they have known that Betsy is Lisa's daughter all along #Corrie - just my theory."

@Wee_Westie29 commented: "Matty just mentioned Becky Swain - Lisa’s late wife. He knows something about how she died. My guess is was he was involved in her hit and run. #Corrie #CoronationStreet @itvcorrie." @SheepieSinger echoed: "If the senior Radcliffe brothers had something to do with Becky Swain's death, were either of them involved in the car that ran into Lisa Swain?" @IStay77 added: "So where is this Matty may have killed Becky thing going to go? Is it just a plot device to keep Lisa living in the past? #swarla #corrie."
