Coronation Street fans have slammed Craig, Faye and Emma‘s storyline calling it ‘pathetic.’
At the beginning of this year, Faye and Emma accidentally ran over an elderly man named Ted.
Ted refused to go to hospital and the girls didn’t want to report the accident as Emma had been drinking and Faye was a learner driver.
They later found Ted dead in his flat and instead of going to the police, they cleaned the flat and left him.
However Emma ended up anonymously calling police, pretending to Ted’s neighbour saying she hadn’t seen him for a while.
Faye’s boyfriend Craig, who is a police officer, was called to Ted’s flat and later revealed to Emma and Faye that he was called to a flat where an old man was found dead, unaware of their involvement.

Later Craig sprained his ankle and Tyrone gave him Ted’s crutch to use, as it had been in Emma’s car.
Emma lied she got it for a costume party.

Craig noticed the initial on it and in last night’s episode (Wednesday, January 20) Craig was determined to find out who the crutch originally belonged to as he was bored at home being off work.
However fans have become fed up with the storyline calling it ‘pathetic.’

The crutch will have been handled by hundreds of people and forensics will only recognise prints from known criminals who are on their system. Obviously the Manchester forensic teams have nothing better to do.Another ridiculous storyline. #Corrie

#Corrie is really crutch-ing at straws with this storyline! Would you really waste your time fingerprinting a crutch for £20?! Surely it’s only going to come up with the goods if the old guy had a police record?
