Corrie star Michelle Keegan *is to burst back on to the cobbles – as the sexiest barmaid ever to work at the Rovers *Return.

The 19-year-old plays man-eater Tina McIntyre – who will pull pints after not being seen on screen for months.

A Coronation Street insider said *yesterday: “Show bosses see Michelle as the new Bet Lynch and think she’s got a huge *future ahead of her.

“She is young, gorgeous, a great actress and *hugely popular with viewers. They think she’ll be the sexiest barmaid in the history of the Rovers.”

One of the regulars Tina will serve pints to is David Platt – played by Thomas *Ormson. Platt is Tina’s former boyfriend who got her pregnant so she had an abortion, and he still loves her.

She will also be seen flirting with Jason Grimshaw, played by Ryan Thomas, 27, who she was engaged to before dumping him. Tina’s flirting with her former-flames leads to a string of bust-ups with current boyfriend, *Corrie butcher Graeme Proctor, played by Craig Gazey, 28.

And in a sensational *storyline at the end of the year, Tina will be seen rescuing drinkers when the roof of the Rovers caves in after a tram crashes into the Kabin and the Corner Shop.

Those inside the Rovers are trapped and Tina will be among a number of heroes who come to the rescue in some of the most dramatic scenes ever shown on Corrie – being screened for the show’s 50th anniversary.

Meanwhile, Corrie bosses were forced to stop filming for a day last Tuesday after a leaky roof flooded the set.
