Coronation Street fans believe they have exposed a link between Bobby and killer Harvey.
Bobby, played by Jack Carroll, was introduced as the nephew of Carla Connor (Alison King) at the end of December. He arrived on the Cobbles shortly after Carla’s long-term partner Peter (Chris Gascoyne) left Weatherfield.
The newcomer revealed he is the son of Carla’s brother Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis), who is currently serving life in prison for the murder of Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan). After falling out with his mum, Bobby came looking for his Aunty Carla and a place to stay.

Despite Bobby appearing on the surface as a cheeky and humorous character, fans believe he could be hiding a dark secret. Writing on a fan forum, one fan said: “I was thinking who is Harvey’s mole on the street.
“I think it’s Bobby because absurd as it sounds his dad’s inside so could pass stuff on to Rob who passed it onto Harvey, and he’s annoying enough to not be suspected by anybody.” A second agreed: “There must be something off about Bobby.”
Harvey, played by Will Mellor, is currently in prison for murder. The drug lord terrorised Leanne Battersby after she worked with police to expose his gang.
Seeking revenge, Harvey shot and killed Natasha Blakeman, believing her to be Leanne. Harvey recently made his return to the soap from behind bars.
Last week, Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) learned ex-wife Sarah Platt (Tina O’Brien) had reunited with Damon Hay, Harvey’s half-brother. Wanting rid of Damon for good, Adam made Harvey an offer he couldn’t refuse.
If Harvey can get rid of Damon for good, Adam agreed to help him with his murder appeal. “He ruined my life, it’s time to return the favour,” Adam told the criminal. Harvey later called Adam from his cell and said: “I’m in. I’ll take care of it.”
Sam, who made his first appearance as Adam in 2016, discussed the upcoming storyline and revealed his revenge plan could backfire. He explained: “Adam realises quite quickly that he’s been played a little bit by Harvey but he’s in too deep now, he’s going to have to go with what Harvey says and roll with the punches.”
