Corrie's Liam is murdered.. but in which of these three ways?

HEART-throb Liam Connor is murdered in Coronation Street but viewers will not find out how until next week's screening.

To avoid leaks, three different endings have been filmed and the actors kept in the dark as to which one will go shown.

Villainous Tony Gordon discovered Liam had an affair with his bride-to-be Carla, played by Alison King, and plans a murder.

In the first scenario Tony kills Liam with a real gun on his stag do paintball outing. The second ending has Liam mown down by a hit-and-run driver and dying in Tony's arms.

The third sees Liam, played by Rob James-Collier, being pushed off the balcony of a flat.

Gray O'Brien, who stars as Tony, said: "It was hard work. We shot it in 19 days not the usual 10."

Viewers will see how the businessman snuffs out his rival in the climax to murder week, which sees the five episodes cover a 24-hour period.

Last year the Street filmed two endings of the Tracy Barlow story in which she was cleared and found guilty of murdering Charlie Stubbs.
