This Morning's Dermot O'Leary 'works out' twist as Millie Gibson set for Corrie exit

Dermot O'Leary "worked out" a major Coronation Street twist on today's This Morning.

The broadcaster fronted Friday's edition of ITV's flagship daytime programme alongside Alison Hammond. The two interviewed Corrie stars, Mikey North and Millie Gibson, ahead of tonight's dramatic episode.

Millie has confirmed Friday's show will be her final episode as Kelly Neelan as her revenge plot has gone horribly wrong. Kelly wanted to get revenge on Gary Windass in the show after she discovered he killed her dad, Rick.

Spoilers have revealed one of the characters is going to get shot, but the stars remained tight lipped on who would be hit by the bullet. Mikey said: "We have to be so careful what we say but someone is getting shot tonight, there is a gun, Millie is leaving."

However, Dermot was convinced he cracked it as he shared his theory. He said: "I think that one of you is going to end up shooting the hitman.

"You're [Millie's character Kelly] going to shoot the hitman and you're [Mikey's character Gary] going to go: 'You've got to get out, like I'll cover for you' and that's how you leave."

Mikey refused to give anything away as he joked: "He's got it, Dermot O'Leary, fantastic, brilliant!" Alison shared an alternative suggestion as she believes Kelly will get shot by the hitman while trying to protect Gary.

Millie was impressed by the theory and told Alison: "You should write."
