Soap star Todd Boyce has hinted at his villain Stephen Reid unleashing his murderous instincts again on Coronation Street<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The disgraced businessman has already managed to compile quite the kill list and it seems he may be adding to it before you can say \u201cUnderworld\u201d.<\/p>\n

As fans known, Stephen killed Leo Thompkins (Joe Frost) in an accident last year. After making it look like Leo took off to Canada, the baddie also got rid of Leo\u2019s father Teddy (Grant Burgin) after he\u2019d arrived in Weatherfield to look for his son.<\/p>\n

He then went on to spike his boss Carla Connor\u2019s (Alison King) drinks with LSD to make her doubt her sanity, prompting her to seek medical treatment<\/a>. In recent scenes, he also attempted to kill Rufus Donahue<\/a> (Steve Meo) with a hole punch after the latter threatened to expose his secrets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cI think there could be more,\u201d Boyce told The Mirror<\/a>.\u00a0\u201cHe has a taste for it now and I think he figures that if he gets caught for three, he might as well get caught for four or five.\u201d<\/p>

The star continued: \u201cIt would be great to go down in the record books as the show\u2019s biggest serial killer. What a thing to be known for.\u201d<\/p>\n

While it isn\u2019t clear who Stephen will target next, Boyce revealed most of his co-stars are afraid it could be their turn and often ask him for how long he\u2019s going to be around.\u00a0\u201cI\u2019m forever being asked by the cast: \u2018Now how long are you here for?’\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

\u201cThen they\u2019ll come back a month later and go: \u2018Tell me again, how long do you think you\u2019re going to stay?’\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Boyce, his cast mates just want to know \u201cwhen their future is safe\u201d. \u201cThere have been rumours about Stephen killing very senior characters and they\u2019re all cagey with me.<\/p>
