Coronation Street bosses may be planning to kill off a second character in the upcoming Rovers Return fire.
Sunita Alahan, played by departing actress Shobna Gulati, has been widely tipped to lose her life when the iconic pub goes up in flames next month.
However, show chiefs have now added to the intrigue surrounding the storyline by suggesting that the blaze could result in more than one death.
A newly-released statement on the soap's official website reads: "You may have read reports that the Rovers fire will claim lives. We can now exclusively reveal that more than one person could die in the blaze, which will take hold of the Rovers next month.
"Will landlady Stella fall victim to the fire? Could it be barmaid Tina? Fireman Paul? Bad guy Karl? Sunita? Gloria? Eva? Toyboy Jason? No one is safe from the killer flames…"
Coronation Street's cast and crew have been filming the fire on night shoots this week. Viewers can expect to see the dramatic scenes in March.
Tony Prescott is directing the episodes, while special effects expert Danny Hargreaves has also been involved in the filming. Both worked extensively on the ITV show's 50th anniversary episodes in 2010.
Coronation Street continues tonight (February 13) at 7.30pm on ITV.
