CORRIE adulteress Molly Dobbs is to be KILLED OFF in a major Christmas storyline, we can reveal.
The character, played by Vicky Binns, is pregnant after betraying hubby Tyrone with mechanic Kevin Webster.
And TV Biz has learned that the dramatic exit will leave Kev's wife Sally holding the baby as the couple take in the child after Molly's death.
Scriptwriters have come up with the plotline to keep viewers hooked on the love triangle, even though actress Vicky is leaving.
The soap's new executive producer Phil Collinson first revealed there would be a death on Corrie's official website.
He wrote: "I don't want to give too much away, but there's going to be a dead body on Coronation Street.
"It's going to be a death that will affect a couple of our most significant characters in a way that will hopefully be really surprising and exciting.
"It's the beginning of a story that's going to take us across the next year."
Vicky, 27, joined Coronation Street in 2005 as Molly Compton, the daughter of local baker Diggory.
The character arrived intent on revenge against her former classmate, Fiz Brown, played by Vicky's off-screen pal Jennie McAlpine, 26.
Molly married Tyrone Dobbs in January last year, but began an affair with his garage boss Kevin just months later.
The pair planned to leave their spouses on Christmas Day, but Kevin had a change of heart after Sally told him she had breast cancer.
Molly left Tyrone, then found out she was pregant weeks later.
Unsure about who was the father and facing life as a single mum, she went back to her unsuspecting husband.
