Viewers of the ITV soap opera think that Claire Sweeney’s character Cassie Plummer will turn into a murderer in an unexpected twist.

Fans now think that the mighty Ken Barlow could be her very first victim.

Theories have gone wild after Cassie overheard Ken declaring that he had won an eye-watering £50,000 in premium bonds.

Cassie heard him make the confession as she headed back to number 1 as part of her carer’s duties.

She has been helping to look after Ken in recent weeks after he suffered a horror collapse.

Having got form to getting her hands on large sums of cash before, it would not be totally out of the blue for Cassie to take it to the extremes to get what she wants.

Specualtion is now rife that she could turn killer in order to bump off Ken and secretly take his money.

Commenting online, one fan said: “So Cassie’s going to knock Kenneth off then? I wondered why they’d randomly put her in there.”

Another added: “#Cassie has to slowly drug Ken so he grts brain addled in order to get her hands on his bankcard /password out of him which seems the obvious but it backfires.”

A third then said: “Watch out Ken. Cassie is after your money.”

As someone else said: “You can see the cogs turning in Cassie’s head…..”

In the episode, Cassie, who is a recovering drug addict, pretended she didn’t hear the call and only slammed the front door closed when it had ended.

As she checked on Ken she asked him if he had anything to discuss, fans watched her later smirk in the kitchen.

Meanwhile, Corrie fans were left stunned earlier this week by Cassie’s glam transformation.

Viewers watched as Cassie thought she was asked out on a date by Steve McDonald and quickly transformed herself.

A fresh-blow dry, a nice top and a denim skirt – as well as a full face of make-up – made Cassie look every bit as glamorous as actress Claire is off-screen.
