SHOCKING NEWS!!! Coronation Street’s Lisa armed with evidence to bring down Kit for good

Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) isn’t the type of bloke to go around hitting people in Coronation Street… unless they’re stalking his mum. But the law is the law. Will Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) look the other way when her friend and colleague attacks Mal Roper (Tim Treloar)… again?

Kit Green isn’t a great advert for the Weatherfield police department. The morally ambiguous plod has a shady track record of playing fast and loose with the ends to the justify the means – like the time he planted evidence to frame Nathan Curtis (Christopher Harper) for Lauren Bolton’s (Cait Fitton) murder.

Or that time he blackmailed Beth Tinker (Lisa George) into leaving Weatherfield after 13 years on the cobbles. Or the time he let Mick Michaelis (Joe Layton) go to prison for the arson he committed on a local shop, while he went on to join the police force.

Let’s call a spade a spade. Kit Green is basically a bent copper.

Needless to say, his ‘unorthodox’ approach to law enforcement has caused him to clash with the dogged DS Lisa Swain, who has repeatedly called him out for ‘shady policing’. Admittedly her attitude has softened somewhat since Kit had a hand in saving her fiancee Carla Connor (Alison King) from the bunny-boiling Becky Swain (Amy Cudden).

Surely, even Lisa wouldn’t clutch her pearls about the odd bit of vigilante violence where Mal Rope is concerned. The unhinged electrician has definitely definitely suffers from dodgy wiring.

When Bernie Winter (Jane Hazlegrove) met Mal while drowning her sorrows over the death of Billy Mayhew in the Chariot Square Hotel, he became so obsessed with her that he took a job in Weatherfield as an electrician just to be closer to her.

But Bernie was never going to leave her devoted husband Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) for the unstable cable guy. She rebuffed his advances, and Mal did not take it well.

Neither did Kit. Not once Bernie told him all about Mal’s terrifying campaign of harassment against her. So it came as no surprise to anyone that the mystery attacker who assaulted the crazed stalker and put him in hospital was none other than Weatherfield’s poundshop Batman, Kit Green… although to be fair, Mal’s heart attack did most of the work.

Like the upstanding officer of the law he is, Kit initially allowed the blame to fall on his dear old mum, who was arrested after earlier threatening to “kill” Mal. He even lied to his girlfriend, Sarah Platt (Tina O’Brien), before eventually confessing the truth to her in confidence.

Then Mal regained consciousness, and when Kit paid him a visit, the haywire electrician revealed that he knew Kit was the one who assaulted him.
