Coronation Street Introduces Roy Cropper Prison Pen-Pal Mystery

The correspondent remains unnamed, prompting fan speculation about links to past characters or ongoing plots.

Overview

  • Episodes released on November 19 show Roy signing up to a scheme that pairs writers with prisoners and keeping his correspondent’s identity from Nina.
  • Coverage confirms only that Roy is exchanging letters with someone in jail, with no on-screen reveal of who that person is.
  • Viewers on Facebook, Reddit and X are proposing theories, including that the correspondent could be former resident Becky McDonald, which remains unconfirmed.
  • Newer discussion reported on November 20 suggests the letters might connect to current storylines, though this is fan conjecture rather than established plot.
  • The thread follows Roy’s recent time in prison linked to the Lauren Bolton case, which he cites as a reason for supporting isolated inmates.
