Horrified Corrie fans floored by the proof that Hope Stape really is 'evil'

Hope Stape shocked and appalled Coronation Street fans by setting fire to Tyrone Dobbs and pregnant girlfriend Alina Pop's flat.

But just when they thought her behaviour couldn't get any worse, it just did.

Hope now faces trial for the arson attack in the soap, but she clearly doesn't care one bit.

As her despairing parents Fiz Stape and Tyrone Dobbs sat her down to explain that she had to talk to the police she was more concerned about missing holiday club.

"When the police ask you about the fire you need to tell them you are really really sorry," Tyrone told her.

"It was accident," she insisted.

"I know but it was a bad thing to do and Alina ended up in hospital," her stepdad told her.

"She's fine," sighed an exasperated Hope.

She then shocked her parents by adding coldly: "And anyway it doesn't matter about the cot now there's no baby to put in it."

"You're going to have to tell the police that you're truly sorry and that you won't ever do it again," said Fiz.

But insolent Hope delivered the final blow when she told them: "Sorry. Not sorry."

The 10-year-old murderer in the making then scurried away as viewers took to Twitter to voice their horror.

"OMG the way Hope just ran off and said 'not sorry'" tweeted one.

"Hope isn’t even bothered!" exclaimed another.

“Sorry...not sorry” bloody hell Hope," another gasped.

"Hope is EVIL," decided another.

"Literally want to reach inside my tele," another soap watcher wrote.

The Coronation Street 'demon child' started the fire in a fit of jealousy over Tyrone's relationship with Alina and the news that they were expecting a baby boy.

Alina later miscarried the child after being rushed to hospital.

After being told about the tragedy Hope has failed to show any remorse for her behaviour as Fiz and Tyrone covered up for her.

When Alina found out that Hope was responsible Tyrone went to the police and Fiz, who was taking the rap, was released.
