Okay, I'm kidding myself then. But I'm kidding myself with evidence and facts at least.

Come on Surge, Phelan has been the best villain in soap for a long while. Pat being killed off in 2016 would have been a complete waste of his potential, thankfully that didn't happen as 2017 was the year of the Phelan and Andy storyline, which was done perfectly. 2018 will be the year of Pat's reign of terror coming to an end no doubt though, Luke has already seen the little model of a house, new flats are being developed and the gun is in the house.

What potential? He's a flat stock character. He can't hold a candle to Richard Hillman, because Richard Hillman was effectively a complex shakespearean villain with development and charm before he became a villain. Phelan was only intended to be on for 3 episodes in 2014, and by god it shows. The Andy and Phelan storyline was just the writers beating around the bush and refusing to end what they should have never started. It was just Phelan winning over and over again in the most predictable ways with minimal pay off. I'm looking forward to his exit, not because I want to see a reign of terror end, or I want to see a villain get his deserved comeuppance, but because I'm sick of sitting through garbage.

Bullet 285 phelan great villain but his storyline drag on for too long now

Bullet 285 I agree...he plays the role well. The fact that he was only meant to be on Corrie for a short time says it all. If he didn't play a good villain, he'd not have been given all this additional time on the show. I absolutely despise and hate Pat Phelan....but I am very impressed with the actor that plays him! Happy new year my friend, from Ontario Canada 🇨🇦‼️😁✨

What is he framing him for?

Onmysheet Andy and Vinny getting shot because that mill Gary is working on is where they died.

+LeedsFan2004 ! But motive would Seb have to realistically be a suspect, he hardly knew either of them.

Tom Higgins true but phelan is seeking last resorts and is just taking a stab in the dark now because he's so desperate!
