If we talk about the character that has given Coronation Street viewers the most “goosebumps” recently, DI Costello is definitely at the top of the list.

From his authoritarian attitude, psychological tricks to his “if you don’t leave Weatherfield, you die with me” threats to Becky Swain, he is becoming the focus of anger from both the neighborhood and viewers.

But the good news is: the time for him to pay the price seems to be getting closer.

Becky Swain – his most traumatized victim – is gradually rising up.

Although she was once so panicked that she wanted to run away from the street, Becky realized that silence only made Costello more rampant. She begins to retrace her steps, recording, collecting clues about his unusual appearances, even contacting former victims for more evidence. Becky’s fear is now replaced by a determination to expose him.

Behind-the-scenes rumors also confirm that Costello “will be coming up early”, meaning the writers have planned a huge “fall from grace”. Viewers are speculating that this fall will not just be a loss of position – but the exposure of a whole series of crimes. Some sources speculate that Costello manipulated files, threatened to kill witnesses and was involved in a death in the past. If Becky exposes the right weakness, everything could explode in the upcoming climax.

The drama will intensify as Weatherfield is divided into two factions. Some people once believed Costello was a “man of the law”, others have long suspected him. When the truth is revealed, the reaction of the residents will certainly be chaotic: surprise, outrage, even demands for the law of the jungle. The same goes for the audience – everyone is looking forward to seeing Costello pushed to the edge.
