Does Jenny Connor bring bad luck to the men she loves?
On Monday, the Manchester-based soap included horrific scenes during which her toyboy Leo (portrayed by Joe Frost) was pushed off a railing to his death by Stephen Reid (Todd Boyce).
The son of Audrey Roberts was then seen dragging Leo's body, which fell into a bin, in a van before seemingly disposing of it.
However, many fans of the long-running drama have taken to social media, asserting hope that Leo is actually alive and ready to get revenge on the scheming businessman.

"Kind of hope Leo is alive but pretends to be dead and messes with Stephen causing him to go mad", another fan penned.
"I think Leo is alive, the bin bags have broken his fall and he only bumped his head, he just been knocked out a bit. Just a theory", one viewer chimed in.

"Is Leo alive", another viewer asked.
As mentioned above, Leo was seemingly killed off in shocking scenes after a heated altercation with Stephen Reid.
