CORONATION Street star Antony Cotton has signed a new contract keeping him in the soap as camp Sean Tully until July next year.

Bosses have lined up a new storyline which will see Sean fall in love with a man he meets at the Mr Gay Weatherfield contest.

An insider said: “Antony loves playing Sean. He helped create the character and he’s thrilled with his new storyline.

Axed ... Tom Kerrigan

Axed ... Tom Kerrigan

Allan Bentley

“It’s been a quiet time for Sean lately but there’s hope and heartbreak just round the corner.”

However bosses have axed Philip McGinley, 27, who plays Tom Kerrigan in the ITV show. He shot his final scenes last week and leaves our screens in May.

Philip said: “Ta to everyone who’s said they’re sad I’m leaving Corrie, but it’s always good to do something new. I’m trying to learn a bit of Shakespeare — it’s a bit different to the stuff I’ve been saying in Weatherfield.”

His exit storyline sees ruthless businessman Tony Gordon (Gray O’Brien) buy his 25 per cent share in Lad Rags.

A Corrie insider said: “Philip is a great actor but his character had come to the end of the road.

“The rest of the cast were sad to see him go but the door has been left open for him to return should another storyline turn up.”

CORRIE barmaid Becky Granger faces years in the slammer when cops nab her with a stash of Class A drugs.

The troublemaker is nicked when the Rovers is raided in a narcotics bust.

Regulars’ jaws drop as Becky, played by Katherine Kelly, 29, is hauled off protesting that she has been set up.

But with her criminal past, even close pals doubt her — including lover Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson).

Suspicious ... Steve McDonald

Suspicious ... Steve McDonald

A show insider said: “This will be devastating for Becky.

“Her future will be in balance after her arrest and her relationship with Steve will be teetering on the brink.”

The source added: “It’ll be touch and go whether she goes down or not.”

But while her pals fear the worst, viewers will know that trashy Becky is INNOCENT.

The drugs will be planted on her by loser ex-boyfriend Slug — who is blackmailed into doing the dirty by bent copper DC Hooch.

The detective has held a grudge against Becky since she reported him for demanding a sex act from her when she was 15.

As soon as the drugs are in place, Hooch leads a police raid on the Rovers and finds the bar girl in possession.

He sneers at her: “Got you. Say goodbye to your new life Becky because this time you’re going down and I’ll make sure they throw away the key.”

Loyal Roy Cropper is convinced from the start that his former cafe employee has been framed and sets about trying to prove the truth.

But it turns out DC Hooch is not the only one in on the sinister plot.

The shock storyline is set to air on ITV1 this summer.

The source said: “There’s someone else involved too.

“Becky’s made many enemies during her time on the Street and it could be anyone of a number of people.”

The Sun


Sounds awesome

[MrGaryy]

I reckon it will have been her sister who set her up.

[Scarlett.]

I think it will be Kelly...but the mention of both Slug and Hooch is great...they were just part time characters, the sort that would usually be forgot about

[BigSister]

Hooch kinda scared me hehe
But poor Becky her reputation goes before her again

[Scarlett.]

Aye, it will be quite a scene to see the Rover's being raided though

[Scarlett.]

CORRIE is rocked to the core when a popular old resident owns up to his under-age sex secret.

Rita’s new fancy man, Colin Grimshaw, is exposed as the secret dad of knicker-stitcher Julie Carp.

The shocking revelations will be screened in May when Colin – played by Edward De Souza, 77 – confesses to a gob-smacked Rovers Return that 20 years earlier he took advantage of 14-year-old schoolgirl Paula Carp and got her pregnant.

So Julie (Katy Cavanagh, 35) is his secret daughter.

Tearfully he confesses: “Yes it’s true. I seduced Paula when she was just a schoolgirl. And because she was so young people must be calling me all sorts.

“I suppose people will say I’m a kiddie-fiddler and a paedophile. And I suppose it’s true.

“But I was so flattered by this young girl’s attention that I never thought about it like that.

“I know I should have stopped it before it began, but I couldn’t help myself. I split up two families and caused everyone such terrible pain”

Colin’s daughter Eileen (Sue Cleaver, 42) who was Paula’s best friend at the time, is disgusted.

She remembers Paula suddenly moving away from Weatherfield with her parents.

But she never knew where she had gone, or why.

Eileen tells her pals: “He was nothing more than a middle-aged pervert back then. And now he is just a sick old man.”

Also sickened is his girlfriend Rita (Barbara Knox, 75) who had been seduced by his charms and was close to letting him move in with her.

A Street insider said: “The repercussions of this will destroy families - and friendships"
