Everything you need to know about CoronationStreet's Rufus and actor Steve Meo
As Coronation Street ’s resident villain Stephen Reid comes face to face with the ghost of his past this week, all eyes will undoubtedly be on the serial killer as he attends a memorial service for his former business associate Rufus Donahue.
The game may well soon be up for the killer however, when Eleanor, Rufus’ widow produces a bag full of Rufus' belongings that the police found - something that crucially contains a tie pin that previously belonged to Stephen himself! Initially, Stephen refused, prompting Rufus to threaten Stephen that he would go to the police and rumble his use of illicit drugs as well as having drugged Carla to make her think she was suffering from another mental health relapse.
Yet as the pair shared a conciliatory drink together, Stephen discreetly laced Rufus’ drink with drugs and when his companion was too intoxicated to walk in a straight line, Stephen callously pushed him into a swimming pool and watched patiently as he waited for him to drown. Using a gruff London accent for his role in Corrie, Steve was a far cry from his comedic roots in Welsh drama Gavin and Stacey, where he played Owain Hughes, a work colleague of Gavin’s.
Steve also appeared in BBC comedy Grownups for 3 years, and even appeared in Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps alongside Sheridan Smith and Will Mellor.
