Here are the first steamy pictures of the new street-fighting hunks in the lives of Corrie's Connor ladies.

Actors Sol Heras and Marc Bayliss will set hearts racing when they burst onto our screen this summer as Michelle Connor's son Ryan and Carla Connor's jailbird brother Rob Donovan.

The role of Ryan was recast after original actor Ben Thompson decided he did not want to return in the role.

Hard man Rob arrives in Weatherfield after being released from prison and turns to his sister, Carla, for help in starting a new life. With a reputation as a tough cookie and with a string of broken hearts behind him Rob looks certain to cause a stir.

Meanwhile Ryan returns home to Coronation Street unexpectedly having been thrown out of University in Glasgow.

It isn't long before the two bad lads are shaking up the cobbles and they even square up to each other after Rob tries to teach Ryan a thing or two about family loyalty!

And as our exclusive photos show - these are two men you wouldn't want to mess with.

Coronation Street Producer Phil Collinson said: "Carla's brother Rob is the latest in a long line of handsome Corrie charmers and is sure to set hearts fluttering in Weatherfield from the minute he arrives. The audience can expect thrills and a few broken hearts when this
handsome bad boy hits town.

"Ryan returns carrying a dark secret and Michelle is going to have the fight of her life as she battles to get her troubled son back on the straight and narrow. Sol is a brilliant young actor and I’m so excited to welcome him to the cast.”

Marc’s previous credits include, Misfits, Law and Order UK and Sirens whilst Sol has previously appeared in ITV1 drama Rock Rivals and Hollyoaks Late Night.

Yeah and we get some family for Carla too:love:.

Are the rumours that Carla and Peter split up and then he and St Leanne get back together true then?.

A lot of the promo material seems to be about them being street fighters, I wonder if they will be giving the street a gym? (Further up Victoria Street would work, or Se7enth Heaven)

Hopefully not a boxing club or gym. The last thing this supposed "back street" needs is more businesses.

Or at least if they do have one, have it in the centre of town where it only features every now and again

It'd make sense to be on Victoria Street, then again they could set it in the area where we saw Britney's tonight
