If you're wondering whose the fourth funeral will be following the Coronation Street tram crash, wonder no more.
Digital Spy confirm in an interview with Corrie producer Phil Collinson that the "Four Funerals" tagline was a red herring in a bid to increase the speculation and secrecy surrounding the high-profile week of episodes. The mystery fourth death was the taxi driver and father-of-three mentioned by firefighters in Thursday night's live episode. He had been close to The Joinery when the bar exploded.
Corrie producer Phil Collinson said: "It was vital that we created as much anticipation and intrigue as possible for anniversary week. The 'Four Funerals' tag was too good to resist and encouraged the speculation about who would and who would not survive this terrible week in Weatherfield. In this case, speculation became a big part of the viewers' identification with the drama and therefore enhanced their enjoyment of it."
So I guess that means both Sunita and Peter scrape through and live now that Molly, Ashley and Charlotte are confirmed dead.
