The Sun (so please take this with the usual pinch of salt) says this week that the lovely Billy Mayhew is going to be exposed as the person who killed Susan Barlow.
Say what?
I know!
In the news article in the tabloid, it says that Billy will confess he killed Susan Barlow after it had previously been thought she had died in a tragic motorway accident in 2001.
Susan Barlow, you'll remember, was Peter Barlow's twin sister who married Ken's nemesis Mike Baldwin. She is Adam Barlow's mother.
From The Sun.... "But in shock scenes to air in the coming weeks, Billy finally admits his guilt and confesses to Todd Grimshaw he has lived with the secret for years – sparking fury and heartbreak which will build to become a major Christmas storyline."
Mr Curry Sauce tells The Sun: “Billy is one of the nicest men on the Street, and fans see him as a mild-mannered voice of reason in amongst all the chaos. But in the coming weeks, fans will discover there is much more to Billy than previously thought – and he’s been harbouring a dark secret. For 16 years he’s been wracked by guilt knowing that he killed Susan, and finally things come to a head as he reveals to Todd he caused the accident when she died. It’s heartbreaking for him, and he tells how he now has to suffer the agony of living alongside the family he caused so much pain to all those years ago.
A spokeswoman for the show is quoted in The Sun saying: “We do not comment on storyline speculation.”
