Coronation Street fans 'work out' who Tia Wardley really is - and it's not Becky
Coronation Street fans think there may be more to the mystery Tia Wardley amid theories it's Lisa Swain's late wife Becky Swain under a new identity on the ITV soap
Viewers of Coronation Street think they may have figured out the truth about the mystery Tia Wardley.
The name was mentioned on Friday during a scene with Carla Connor and Logan Radcliffe, and it appears 'Tia' is linked to the death of Lisa Swain's late wife Becky Swain. Carla was trying to get answers for partner Lisa from Logan, as he was in the car that killed the police officer in the line of duty.
There's still so much confusion over Becky's demise and what happened prior to the event, and at the time. It comes following suggestion Becky was a corrupt officer, and that this could have led to her being killed - while this has often been downplayed.
So when Carla demanded answers from Logan just as Lisa was snooping in Becky's files at the police station, she was intrigued when Logan gave her the name 'Tia Wardley'. There was no context and when Carla did some digging, she found nothing.
It has to be important though, as it left Logan in danger later on when a cellmate told him he'd upset a "mutual friend" by saying too much. Logan insisted he'd said nothing but his cell door was closed, implying he was facing a beating or worse to be silenced.
So what has Logan said with that one name, and why is Tia so relevant to the case and Becky's death? Amid theories it could be Becky's new identity and she's still alive, other fans have come up with a new idea.
Fans think the name might not be a person, but maybe a place or even a code name. They suggested it could be an anagram or just a code for something else.
From a building to a location or area, fans think Tia means something and it's linked to what led to Becky dying. Taking to social media, one fan theorised: "Wardley is a suburb of Salford where #Corrie is set. Just saying!"
Another fan said: "Walk with me... what if it's not Tia (woman) but T.I.A. (a dodgy company) in Wardley.. Like summat, summat & Associates - Wardley? A shady accounting front for laundering? Becky found out. Costello tried to protect her by framing her, but the OCG had her [killed]?"
Other fans thought it was a person, but still was not Becky. A viewer posted: "What if Becky had an affair with Tia Wardley?" Another said: "I wanna know who this tia is. Did Becky have an affair with tia behind Lisa's back?"
