Coronation Street bosses tease Gail Platt return despite exit after 50 years


Coronation Street's Helen Worth is said to be in talks about a potential return to the ITV soap as Gail Platt after she made her emotional final exit on Christmas Day

The 73 year old star, who dedicated half a century to the ITV soap, left Weatherfield in tearful scenes on Christmas Day, but whispers suggest this legend of the street will grace our screens again. With an astonishing five decades on the cobbles, Helen has lived through the soap's epic sagas, like her character's tumultuous union with notorious Richard Hillman, portrayed by Brian Capron. In an emotional final scene, Gail tied the knot with Jesse Chadwick and shared heartfelt exchanges with her offspring David, Sarah, and Nick before departing the iconic street.
