Coronation Street has brought back one of its most talked about storylines this week, as Bobby Crawford finally discovers the truth about his father Rob Donovan's imprisonment. It all began when Bobby came to the street after being kicked out by his mother, and ended up living with his aunt Carla Connor. He had always believed that his father was wrongfully imprisoned for acting in self-defense, but after a conversation with Rita Tanner and Mary Taylor, he became curious about the true story. This led him to confront Carla and demand to know the truth.
Carla was forced to reveal everything, leaving Bobby shocked. But who did his father actually kill? For those who need a refresher, let's take a trip down memory lane. The victim was none other than Tina McIntyre, making it one of Coronation Street's most iconic and unforgettable storylines. Tina, played by Michelle Keegan, was a barmaid on the street for six years and had a tumultuous relationship with David Platt. She also had a brief stint as a surrogate for Gary Windass and Izzy Armstrong, and had a string of relationships with Weatherfield's men, including married Peter Barlow.
Despite the fact that it feels like it happened just yesterday, it's been 10 years since Tina's tragic murder. For those who may have forgotten, here's a recap of what happened on that fateful night. Tina had plans to run away with Peter, but when his wife Carla announced her pregnancy at Rob and Tracy's engagement party, those plans were put on hold. Later that night, Tina confronted Rob about his illegal activities at his second-hand shop, Barlow's Buys, and their affair. This led to a heated argument that ended on the builder's yard balcony, where Tina was pushed off and killed. In a desperate attempt to cover up his crime, Rob then beat her to death with a metal pole.
Rob has been serving a 25-year sentence ever since, except for a brief period when he escaped and went on the run with Tracy and her daughter Amy. Recently, Rita was horrified to learn about Bobby's parentage, as she saw Tina as the daughter she never had. Now that Bobby knows the truth, will he be able to cope with the shocking revelation and how will it affect his relationships on the street? Only time will tell.
