Bookies think they know who pushed Ken Barlow down the stairs in Coronation Street

Odds have been slashed on one of the remaining suspects in Coronation Street's Who Pushed Ken Barlow saga

We're not really betting people over here at Closer HQ, but if we were, we'd be putting a fiver on this suspect in the Who Pushed Ken Barlow mystery. According to oddschecker.com, there has been a flurry of bets placed on Sinead Tinker being the culprit, after Friday's episode of Corrie saw her tell Daniel that they needed to escape. Could mousy Sinead really have been the one who shoved the Corrie legend down the stairs and leave him for dead?

Over the weekend, Sinead has gone from 28/1 to just 16/1. A week ago, she was an outside bet at 100/1.

Sinead has a good reason to have given Ken the push after he convinced her to abort the baby she was expecting with his son, Daniel.

Ken told Sinead that she would be ruining Daniel's life, if she went ahead and had the baby, while Daniel is smart enough to go to Oxford.

On the night Ken was pushed, Sinead had been out drinking and told her aunt, Beth Sutherland, that she hated Ken and wished he was dead.

She was later seen hammering on the door of No.1, telling Ken to open up.

We know Sinead can have her fiesty moments, but does she really have it in her to try to kill an elderly man? We're not convinced...
