Coronation Street fans have been buzzing with theories after the latest episode, with many now convinced they know the real person behind the attack on Noah— and it wasn’t Gary Windass (Mikey North).

Noah’s Dark Past Comes to Light

Noah (Richard Winsor) first appeared on Coronation Street earlier this year, and fans quickly learned of his troubling connection to Theo Silverton (James Cartwright). It was revealed that Noah had subjected Theo to conversion therapy in the past, which deeply impacted Theo’s emotional journey and struggles with his sexuality.

The revelation of Noah’s past sparked painful memories for Theo, and his resurfacing in Walford stirred up intense feelings. As Theo began to open up to his new partner Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce), the tension surrounding Noah only grew.

Theo’s Heartbreak and the Wrecked Builders’ Yard

When Theo discovered that Noah was dating his ex, Danielle Silverton (Natalie Anderson), the pain became unbearable. Seeing Noah and his children featured in a poster promoting traditional families pushed Theo over the edge, leading him to trash the builders’ yard in a fit of despair.

It was at this moment that Theo was discovered by Gary Windass, who had his own history of intense interactions with Noah. Theo confided in Gary, explaining the turmoil he had been facing, and Gary promised to deal with Noah in his own way.

Gary Windass: The Suspected Attacker?

In the August 13th episode, Gary went to confront Noah at the community center, but his wife Maria intervened. The two ended up painting Pride rainbows over Noah’s homophobic posters, a move that seemed to challenge his hateful actions.

However, things took a darker turn when Danielle’s wife showed up at Todd’s house, revealing that Noah had been attacked and was now in the hospital. Danielle immediately pointed the finger at Theo and Todd, suggesting that they were responsible for the assault.

But the real shock came when Gary was seen at home with a blood-stained t-shirt, which seemed to confirm his involvement in the attack. But was he really the one who assaulted Noah?

Despite the blood-stained evidence, Coronation Street fans have their doubts. Many are convinced that Gary didn’t actually assault Noah and have started to propose other suspects.

On a Coronation Street Facebook fan page, one viewer asked, “Did Gary really attack Noah then?” Another fan suggested that Danielle could be the real culprit: “Maybe Danielle? Could be some sick plan to get her revenge on Theo by trying to frame him.” A third fan agreed, saying, “Yeah, or Noah could be in on it as well?”

With the mystery of who really attacked Noah still unsolved, Coronation Street fans are eagerly awaiting the next twist in this complex storyline.
