Coronation Street fans were stunned when Phelan DIDN'T die in the concrete last night
Our hopes were DASHED in last night's episode of Corrie when Evil Pat Phelan survived the concrete waterfall against all odds.
We really felt sure that it would be the end of the villain after we knew he would fall down a column mold into liquid concrete where he was trying to bury the bodies of his victims.
Unfortunately for us, Eileen and Tim arrived in the nick of time.

As the weather gets worse, the scaffolding falls down onto Phelan and he's trapped in the concrete and can't pull himself out. He begins to lose consciousness as the concrete keeps rising - will Tim and Eileen arrive in time?

9 of 9Phelan gets stuck in the concrete
But he can't then climb out by the time he's got in there. He ends up stuck in the unset concrete while it's still pouring with the bodies he's tried to bury.
The Corrie double bill had viewers hiding behind cushions as the tense scenes saw the duo call an ambulance just at the moment it looked like he was about to snuff it.
SO CLOSE.
We weren't the only ones who thought so.
But shockingly, others were RELIEVED he'd live to fight another day.
But we have it on good authority that it really won't be long before Phelan IS evicted from the Street.
Show boss Kate Oates told the Radio Times that Eileen would be involved, and as they're going on holiday together to rekindle the flames of love, we wouldn't be surprised if Eileen just loses it and accidentally kills him.
EEK.
WATCH: Is this the end for Pat Phelan? The villain gets stuck in a pit of liquid concrete and it all looks very bleak...
