Callum Logan

it was waste we didn't see more of callum parents, yes seems parkerman theory of school nurse or teacher is correct then

It so looked like his mum. I thought it was his mum. I thought he took her as Max may have made a scene otherwise. Needt to see the clip again. Agree that Corrie could have done more to make Callum long term character.

It was school staff

Seems odd for a teacher or assistant staff to take their handbags with them to put a child into a car ....

I'm starting to have second thoughts about whether I think Callum will be killed off over the 60th. Corrie, unlike EastEnders, doesn't seem to have murderers (although the perpetrator any other crime is seemingly fine) walking around all over the place and they get punished to some extent (even Tracey who was eventually released from jail in a farfetched storyline.) I don't think they would want to make any of the Platts a murderer for that reason, as it would make their departure inevitable. As someone else said, Callum could return in the future and cause no end of problems for them. It was something that occurred to me when it started to look as though David and Kylie would actually give him the £20,000. If Callum signed away his rights, he might turn up in the future and claim that they suggested they pay him to do it. The paperwork might then be considered not legally binding and/or he could claim he signed under duress as he had debts. I'm not sure if that would hold in the real world but it should be good enough for a soap that has retconned to accommodate this storyline.

If Callum does end up under the Platts' garage (nice theory by the way) then I think Tony will kill him. He seems like the kind of character that has a shelf life and who they wouldn't particularly regret disposing of for the sake of a dramatic storyline.

I can't believe we didn't see Max kicking off at the school nurse saying that he didn't want to go with Callum. This Denton seems very convenient all of a sudden, as if they changed/rushed the ending of the storyline. Did Callum buy all those presents with money from a loan shark then?

It did look like her. It was definitely a different woman putting Max in the car from the one that had phoned Kylie. Callum also said to Max that he'd better not be sick in his mum's car, so I think it probably was her. It sounded as though another door was closing after Max had been put in, so she was probably getting in the front off camera. Perhaps they were originally planning for the storyline to end up in court and booked the actress with that in mind. As I said before, it does have the feeling that something has been changed. Once the actress had been contracted, they wouldn't have been able to cancel her unless she breached the terms.

The actress who played Callum's mum is called Susan Cookson. I tried to check Friday's credits but they've been cut off of the first episode (ITV Player,) which the character in question appeared in.

I just had a look to see for myself once and for all if it's Callum's mum who puts Max in the car. It definitely is her, I recognise the actress.

See here at about 19:00:

She must have originally been part of Friday's episodes but something changed as Kim says.

Terence Maynard is booked to appear in panto this Christmas, so it's likely he's leaving the show. The Corrie cast don't generally get time off for panto unlike the EE cast. It's a shame because I think Tony's come into his own recently and I'd like to see more of him. He is a character I believe could murder Callum without much remorse.

If Callum's dies it could be a genuine accident, although I don't know why they'd cover it up if that was the case. Possibly because it looks incriminating?

I'd personally love if it were a conspiracy between David, Kylie, Sarah, Tony and possibly Jason.

Sean Ward, who plays Callum, says he'll be sticking around Coronation Street for the foreseeable future!

Is this interview designed to put us off the scent, or are all the recent murder clues red herrings?
