Coronation Street viewers have been spooked by dramatic scenes revolving around Kelly Neelan and her guardian Gary Windass The high-octane drama kicked off on Tuesday night as Kelly was urged on by the ghostly form of her late dad to kill Gary in revenge for murdering him back in 2019.
Kelly approached hitman Kieron Edgerton, and offered him £10,000 to kill Gary. Keading up to Kelly's exit as part of Corrie's 'Super Soap Week', Kieron and his sidekick, Al, lead Gary through the woods to the very place where he killed Rick. Pointing a gun at him, they order him to dig his own grave.
Before his latest role in Weatherfield, Manchester actor Pat Lally, who plays Kieron, appeared in a Hollywood blockbuster. In 2018 he played a reporter interviewing rock icon Freddie Mercury in the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody alongside Rami Malek, Ben Hardy, Lucy Boynton and Gwilym Lee, reports the Daily Star.

Pat trained with renowned teacher Tony Greco in New York and at the Actor's Studio, also in the city. He has also starred in the soaps Emmerdale and Hollyoaks and he previously appeared in Corrie in another role almost 10 years ago.
He appeared in Coronation Street as a delivery man who, in January 2013, was caught up in a plan by Lewis Archer to cause a rift between Gail McIntyre and her son Nick Tilsley. His paths crossed again with Nick in December 2015 when order for the bistro had been mixed up.
He also played a Member of V Court Fitness who, in December 2014, needed medical assistance after breaking his hand while training at the gym co-owned by Dev Alahan and Kal and Sharif Nazir. Pat's Hollywood past was shared earlier this month when he posted a selection of behind-the-scenes snaps.
The photos showed Pat wearing a wig in character as the interviewer in the Oscar-winning movie. He tweeted: "#tbt To a magical time filming Bohemian Rhapsody #queen #music #20thcentury #fox #feature #film #hair #splendidwig #bohemianrhapsody."
Ahead of 'Super Soap Week' he shared a video showing the production involved in creating a glittering Manchester skyline as a backdrop to hair-raising scenes involving Kelly and Kieron. The scenes will see lives left hanging in the balance as things don't quite go to plan.
