Fans of Coronation Street have been left deeply concerned for DS Lisa Swain, with many predicting a dark turn in her storyline involving fellow officer Kit Green.

The recent dramatic hostage situation involving Rob Donovan and Carla Connor has put Lisa in the spotlight—but it seems Kit may have his own agenda.
Lisa Swain Deceived Rob Donovan—With Deadly Consequences
The chaos began earlier this week when convicted murderer Rob Donovan,

who had been serving time in prison, escaped from the hospital after donating his kidney to his sister, Carla Connor.

Rob had only agreed to the procedure after Lisa convinced him she would push to overturn his conviction, giving him hope of eventual freedom.

However, after the surgery on Monday’s episode, Lisa revealed her true colors—gleefully admitting to Rob that she had no intention of helping him and had merely tricked him into donating his kidney. Enraged by her betrayal, Rob overpowered Lisa and took her hostage in her own car, demanding money in exchange for his escape.
Lisa attempted to negotiate, insisting she needed to visit Carla first. But before she could follow through, Rob attacked her, leaving her unconscious before taking Carla hostage in a remote building.
Rob’s Escape Sparks Suspicion
The situation took another shocking turn when Carla, pushed to her limit, lashed out at her brother, sending him tumbling down the stairs. Lisa, bloodied and barely able to stand, arrived at the scene and, upon seeing Rob lying motionless, confirmed that he was dead.

But moments later, it became clear that Lisa had been mistaken—Rob was still alive. Wasting no time, he fled the scene and went on the run, leaving Lisa’s credibility in question.
Now, Kit Green has started questioning Lisa’s actions, casting doubt on her judgment and honesty. He is particularly suspicious about why she falsely declared Rob dead and promised to help overturn his conviction in the first place. Lisa was subsequently brought in for questioning during Wednesday’s episode, further fueling speculation that Kit is trying to take her down.
Fans Convinced Kit Is Targeting Lisa’s Job
Many Coronation Street viewers are growing increasingly suspicious of Kit, believing he is using the situation to discredit Lisa and position himself for a promotion. Fans have taken to social media, convinced that his ultimate goal is to take her job.

One fan wrote:
“Notice how Kit only starts gunning for Lisa’s job when she has a personal connection… I see a foreshadowing of hypocrisy #Corrie #Swarla.”
Another viewer commented on Kit’s condescending attitude towards Lisa, tweeting:
“My god, Kit is so infuriating to watch. The way he speaks to Lisa, you would think he was her boss! It’s super obvious he wants her job, constantly trying to undermine & discredit her. #Corrie #Swarla.”

Others pointed out Kit’s apparent lack of concern for Lisa’s safety despite the harrowing ordeal she endured at Rob’s hands. One fan questioned his true motivations, saying:
“Sorry, but why doesn’t Kit care AT ALL about Lisa? Why is he trying so hard to implicate her in Rob’s escape? Her & Carla were both kidnapped by a CONVICTED MURDERER, who also beat up/killed a prison guard, and he’s suddenly bothered about Rob? That desperate for her job? #Corrie.”
Kit’s Power Play—A Foreshadowing of Trouble Ahead?
The tension between Lisa and Kit has only just begun, but fans are convinced that his relentless push to discredit her will ultimately backfire. Some believe his ambition will lead him to make reckless choices, while others speculate that Lisa might have her own counterattack in the works.

One fan predicted:
“I feel like because Kit is gunning for Lisa’s job a little too hard, it’s going to backfire badly. #Corrie #Swarla.”
With Lisa now under scrutiny and Kit seemingly on a mission to bring her down, it remains to be seen how this power struggle will unfold. Will Lisa manage to clear her name, or will Kit succeed in pushing her out?

One thing is for sure—this battle is far from over, and Coronation Street fans will be eagerly watching to see how it all plays out.
