The killer of the Cobbles is supposed to be serving a 25-year jail sentence, but clearly returned to Weatherfield to plot another dastardly plan with the sneakiest Barlow of them all.
Actor Marc Bayliss has now suggested that Rob may have been behind Ken Barlow’s attack - and he wasn’t alone.
“Absolutely [he could have done it],” he grinned. “We’ve seen the pictures of Rob and Amy together, so there’s some kind of interaction there.”
Suggesting that Ken may have “accidentally” been pushed down the stairs, he teased: “Hypothetically, if Ken did see Rob, he’d be like, ‘Excuse me, what are you doing here?’”

The 40-year-old also warned Coronation Street fans that Rob has returned a “different” man to the one who was sentenced to Tina’s murder 18-months ago.
“Rob is a very different person from the last time we saw him,” he stressed. “A lot has occurred over the past 18 months and he was very angry and bitter at that point about the two women he loved the most in his life loves of his life – one being his sibling and the other the love of his life – together were responsible for him being sentenced to prison.
“Throughout the storyline it will be developed as to exactly what’s been happening with Rob at this time. There’s a lot more tenderness to the Rob we saw before and there will be a lot unearthed about his and Tracy’s relationship throughout all of this arc.”
