The Street's Harriet Bibby People think I am younger because of Corrie.. I still get asked for ID all the time

- BY SUE CRAWFORD

MILD-MANNERED Summer Spellman is the last person Corrie fans would suspect of murder.

But with her emotions running high, after a triple dose of grief in the nine years since she set foot on the cobbles, she could soon be a prime suspect.

Harriet Bibby, who plays her, said: “I think if you push someone far enough, eventually they're going to snap.”

Summer moved to Coronation Street after her dad Drew Spellman died, having asked his ex, vicar Billy Mayhew, to raise her with Todd Grimshaw - who was then his partner.

When Billy and Todd parted and the vicar fell for Paul Foreman, they became her “three dads” until Paul died from motor neurone disease.

Then Billy died in the recent Corriedale minibus crash, which Summer thinks was caused by Debbie Webster. In fact, her son Carl was responsible, but viewers know that Theo Silverton fastened Billy's seatbelt so he was trapped when the van exploded.

Now fans are on tenterhooks after the soap's bombshell flash forward episode showed that a character - one of either Megan Walsh, Theo, Maggie Driscoll, Jodie Ramsay or Carl - will be murdered next month.

If it’s Theo, Harriet says Summer will be a prime suspect - especially if she discovers the twisted scaffolder has been abusing his boyfriend Todd for months.

She said: “So many things have happened to Summer. Is this the straw that breaks the camel's back? It would not be a shock if it was.

“The loss of Billy and the abuse of Todd are huge injustices. They're down to one person and that's Theo.
