We can exclusively reveal that love-rat Lewis Archer, played by Nigel Havers, is set to return to Weatherfield in 2012!

Lewis famously left Audrey heartbroken, after he almost stole £100,000 from her and managed to scam the bookies - getting caught on CCTV kissing Deirdre in the process.

Audrey was devastated by his betrayal, but found he had not taken her money. Instead he left a photograph of them together with the words "I tried" written on the back, before he fled.

Last seen, Lewis was at an airport and seemed to be about to try to charm his way into another woman's life, when he met Lydia Radcliffe (Lysette Anthony).

But now, with Lewis about to return to Weatherfield, is there more heartbreak ahead for Audrey or could things finally be looking up?

Oh crumbs with Stape dropping in around Christmas whenever and now this one returning too, it's going to be a barrel of laughs. I think not.
