Coronation Street is gearing up for a dramatic new year with a wave of cast changes. Long-time viewers will be thrilled to see the return of Rob Donovan, the notorious killer, and Julie Carp, Eileen Grimshaw's half-sister. Meanwhile, the door remains open for a potential comeback of Gail Platt, though no concrete plans are in place.
Coronation Street is undergoing a major shakeup with a plethora of cast changes on the horizon. Recent episodes have seen the surprise return of killer Clayton Hibbs and a chilling reappearance of Richard Hillman. Fans have also witnessed the dramatic exit of evil Joel Deering after a series of flashbacks revealed his true nature, and the heartbreaking departure of long-time resident Gail Platt after 50 years on the cobbles.
But the drama doesn't end there, as 2025 promises even more twists and turns for the residents of Weatherfield.Among the returning faces are Rob Donovan, the notorious bad boy who murdered Tina McIntyre back in 2014. After a decade behind bars, Rob is back to stir up trouble for Carla Connor and Lisa Rimmer, causing chaos just when they think things are settling down. Rob's return is bound to ignite old tensions and relationships, particularly with Carla, with whom he shares a complex history. Also making a comeback is Julie Carp, Eileen Grimshaw's half-sister, played by the talented Katy Cavanagh. Julie's return is intricately tied to Eileen's exit story, raising questions about how Brian Packham, Julie's on-again-off-again boyfriend, will react to her reappearance. While Gail Platt has recently bid farewell to the show, executive producer Iain MacLeod has hinted at a possible future return for the beloved character, especially if a major storyline arises involving her family.
