Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has said that her character Michelle Connor is capable of being Frank Foster's killer.
Michelle is one of five suspects named by Coronation Street bosses for the soap's murder mystery, which began when Frank was found dead on Monday evening (March 5).
Speaking on Loose Women today (March 7), Marsh said that Michelle's desire to protect Frank's ex-fiancée Carla (Alison King) puts her firmly in the frame.
"Sally had blood on her hands, but next week, you'll see that I'm slightly more involved," Marsh explained. "It could be me! She's very, very passionate about her family. There's a little dark side to Michelle, definitely."
Marsh added that she is thrilled with how close Michelle and Carla have become in recent storylines.
"I do love the fact that it's Carla and Michelle in the factory," she commented. "That kind of dynamic really works for us. There was a time when Carla and Michelle fought all the time, and actually it's much more interesting now that we're allies.
"Alison is wonderful and we get on so well. She needs to win 'Best Actress' at the Soap Awards."
Michelle, Carla, Kevin, Peter and Sally are the five suspects named by Coronation Street to promote the storyline.
Show chiefs have promised that the killer will be unmasked later this month.

IF the murderer will have to be one of the five supplied by the show, then probably Kevin or Michelle. But if their suspect list is just to throw us off, then I still think its Anne. She's his Mother and if she brought him into this world, she can take him out. It would be pretty traumatic to find that not only is he a rapist and a liar, he used her, and he disrespects his Father's memory.

Coronation Street's Peter Barlow finds himself looking incredibly guilty over Frank Foster's death in tonight's (March 8) episode of the soap.
Peter (Chris Gascoyne) remains AWOL on the morning after Frank's passing, having gone on a massive bender the night before. When the bookie finally returns home, he's left stunned as Carla (Alison King) explains that Frank has been found dead.
As Peter reels, Carla questions him about where he's been all night, and she's then shocked to spot blood all over his shirt.
Realising this doesn't look good, Carla asks more questions - but Peter admits that he was so drunk last night that he doesn't remember anything. Does this mean he could be a killer without knowing it?

Coronation Street actress Kym Marsh has praised former co-star Andrew Lancel for his portrayal of evil Frank Foster.
Viewers saw Lancel's final scenes on Monday evening (March 5) as his twisted character was found dead at Underworld, sparking a murder mystery on the cobbles.
Speaking on Lorraine this morning (March 8), Marsh said that she was delighted to be part of the dark storyline. Her character Michelle Connor is one of the suspects in the frame for the crime.
"The story has been wonderful. It's been absolutely amazing," she explained. "We've all really, really enjoyed it. I'm kind of sad it's over for us, really! I'm really excited to watch tonight's episode.
"Andrew is fantastic. Everything was so subtle and underplayed, and he just pitched it absolutely right. They've all been amazing. Alison King's been fantastic all the way through as well."
The 35-year-old is currently promoting the paperback version of her autobiography From The Heart, which was released in hardback last year.
Discussing the book, she commented: "I'd been asked to do it a long time ago, when I first got into Hear'Say, but I just didn't feel that I was old enough or experienced enough - and certainly not experienced enough being in this industry. I wanted to wait.
"I just feel that there's a lot of things that have happened in my life that could potentially be helpful for other people to read. And also, there were a lot of rumours about me in the press, and it was my chance to get my side of the story across."
Coronation Street continues tonight at 8.30pm on ITV1.

Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor has revealed that her character Sally Webster is "terrified" when she discovers the identity of Frank Foster's killer.
As announced at the weekend, Sally uncovers the truth next week after attending Frank's funeral.
The factory worker comes face-to-face with the culprit, but soon ends up lying unconscious as the situation escalates.
Dynevor, speaking of the twist for the first time, told Inside Soap: "When Sally realises what happened, it just doesn't make sense - but suddenly the penny drops and she knows she's in real danger herself.
"She's terrified she'll be next and she tries to get away - but she's stopped in her tracks."
The actress added: "She's come face-to-face with the killer, and is in total shock as the truth dawns. Sal tries to get away, but it's far too late."

MILLIONS of Corrie fans have been been left guessing who killed evil Frank Foster.
But real-life cops at Manchester CID already KNOW who did it.
They were handed the scripts and sworn to secrecy after being called in to help the show's writers.
Soap bosses wanted scenes to be realistic as suspects including Frank's former fiancée Carla Connor — whom he raped — were quizzed by screen cops this week over his killing.
It follows the show's producer Phil Collinson admitting last month some mistakes had been made in the portrayal of Foster's rape trial.
Officers from Greater Manchester Police have now guided script- writers over police procedures including making an arrest and carrying out interviews. (YOU MUST BE JOKING)
A Coronation Street insider said: "This is such a big storyline that we wanted to make sure that every little detail was spot on, so we have taken advice from the experts.
"Obviously these scripts are closely guarded so we've sworn the police to secrecy."
A Corrie spokesman said: "We always work closely with experts in any particular field to make sure our storylines are realistic." (SERIOUSLY YOU ARE KIDDING)
Frank, played by Andrew Lancel, was killed off last month as part of a whodunnit storyline.
His former lover Sally Webster is a suspect after Sean Tully and Julie Carp found her kneeling by his bloodied and lifeless body in the Underworld factory.
Others in the frame include Carla, her friend Michelle Connor, Carla's new partner Peter Barlow and Sally's estranged husband Kevin.
Heaven help the good citizens of Manchester if this is a true reflection on how their CID investigate a REAL murder

So when someone's been battered to death in his workplace with a bottle, it would be "realistic" for the police to examine the brakes on the victim's car - gimme a break!
