Roy turns killer as neighbour is devastated by shock death in Coronation Street | The Sun
EVELYN Plummer is never seen without her beloved greyhound, Cerberus.
Unfortunately, Roy Cropper makes a fatal mistake in Coronation Street, which leaves her heartbroken.
Roy's bond with the sharp-tongued Weatherfield resident is in peril next week, particularly after he missed out on her birthday party.
Coming up on ITV, the Roy's Rolls Café owner (played by David Neilson) apologises to Evelyn (Maureen Lipman) for his absence and tells her all about Carla Connor's problems.
The pair have a chat in the café and, of course, Evelyn brought Cerberus along with her.
However, in later scenes, Evelyn is concerned when her faithful companion shows no interest in his tea.

Angry and mortified for her pup, Evelyn tells Roy that if anything happens to Cerberus, she will never be able to forgive him.
In a devastating twist, Evelyn learns that Cerberus is actually suffering from kidney failure and his time has run out.
