Molly and Ashley are favourites to die in next week's tram crash, according to bookmaker
Paddy Power, with those mostly likely to survive including Kevin Webster, Bill Webster, Hayley Cropper and Norris Cole.
Odds on Molly Dobbs meeting her maker in the tram crash are just 1/40 while the bookies' are offering 1/16 on squeaky voiced butcher Ashley Peacock dying in the tragedy.
Hardly surprising given that Corrie producer Phil Collinson has announced that both characters will be axed from the soap. Janice Battersby (Vicki Entwistle) who is also leaving
Coronation Street in its 50th anniversary year has odds of 6/4.
Although it's supposedly a closely guarded secret which of the THREE major characters will die in the Coronation Street tram crash, pictures of Rita appearing to survive the incident with cuts and bruises have been widely circulated - including on Corrieblog
here.
Meanwhile the tabloids recently reported that Molly and Ashley were to die in the tram crash and that John Stape is to murder
Charlotte Hoyle in a desperate attempt to stop her revealing that he buried Colin Fishwick's body in the Underworld knicker factory.
Here are the current odds on who is to die in the Coronation Street tram crash from Paddy Power:
Molly Dobbs 1/40
Peter Barlow 5/2
Dev Alahan 5/1
Ashley Peacock 1/16
Jim MacDonald 3/1
Chris Gray 5/1
Charlotte Hoyle 4/6
Nick Tilsley 3/1
Kevin Webster 6/1
Rita Sullivan evens
Becky MacDonald 3/1

Ken Barlow 5/1

I love Corrie as well and am totally hooked.
Thank goodness DH recorded it for me last night as I was so tired I fell asleep in front of the television.
