Coronation Street viewers all have the same complaint as Roy Cropper makes emotional exit

CORONATION Street fans all have the same complaint after Roy Cropper left the cobbles for good.

The cafe owner - who is played by actor David Neilson in the ITV soap - decided he had to leave Weatherfield for a new life in South America because he couldn’t face looking at Sam Blakeman each day knowing he is partially responsible for his mum Natasha’s murder.

Roy knew about the gun that killed Natasha but didn’t report it, and has since lied to the police to protect Abi Franklin.

After signing over his entire business and flat to niece Nina, Roy decided to travel to South America to work as a chef for the needy.

But his family and friends were devastated at his plans to leave and came together to stop him.

Nothing worked and so in a last ditch effort, Nina locked the cafe door and tried to stop Roy that way.

But when the taxi driver beeped his horn, Roy told her it was time for him to go.

“One day I hope you’ll find it in you heart to forgive me,” he said. 

“This is my only hope of peace. I must go away and atone for what I’ve done.
