Coronation Street and Mick Michaelis star Joe Layton ‘set to leave’ soap just months after joining

Coronation Street star Joe Layton is reportedly set to leave the soap only months after joining as new neighbour Mick Michaelis.

Mick wasted no time in annoying his new neighbours (technically he’d already started months prior, being the driver of the van which harassed Chesney for weeks), upsetting George with his loud music.
