We can exclusively confirm that Katie McGlynn, who played Scout in Waterloo Road, will be joining the cobbles of Corrie.

She'll be playing the role of Beth's niece, Sinead Tinker, who has been tipped to catch Chesney's eye this spring.

As Katy struggles to resist the temptation of smooth talking Ryan, Chesney faces a heart-breaking few months. Will new girl Sinead be his light at the end of the tunnel?

Poor Ches :'(

I never thought him and Katie really fit together, they were okay, but not really made for each other, Sinead, being Beth's niece is probably more Chez's type.

This means Katie's character will get a new lease of life away from Chez too
