Coronation Street spoilers: Roy Cropper blames himself when Richard Lucas dies after a fall!

Roy Cropper has to say goodbye to his half-brother Richard…

Roy Cropper calls at Richard’s and packs Nina off to college, promising to wait in for the new carer.

Aggie tells Roy over the phone that the freezer’s leaking so Richard sends him to help, insisting he will be fine. Roy arrives at the cafe and rings Richard but he is furious to discover the carer still hasn’t turned up.

Assuring Roy he’s ok, Richard ends the call but loses his balance and falls over. Richard answers another call from Roy and, keeping quiet about his fall, pretends all’s well.

Roy finally returns to Richard’s flat to find him passed out on the floor and as the paramedics try to revive him, Nina arrives in time to hear him pronounced dead in this episode of Coronation Street (7.30pm, see our TV Guide for full listings)....
