UK Soap Star Helen Worth Overwhelmed By Surprise Farewell From ‘Coronation Street’ Cast After 50 Years
Worth, who played Gail Platt, left the show after 50 years on Christmas Day.
UK soap star Helen Worth was given an emotional send-off by the cast and crew of Coronation Street, a show she left on Christmas Day after 50 years. Worth has played Gail Platt for 50 years – during her time on the show, she was married five times and been featured in a catalogue of dramatic storylines including widowhood, the death of her husband, and her discovery that one husband Richard Hillman was a serial killer. Hillman actor Brian Capron returned in ghostly form to feature in Worth’s very last episode, which ultimately saw her happily married for a sixth time to husband Jesse Chadwick, played by John Thompson.
