Michael Le Vell reveals all about Corrie car crash

When one of the Coronation Street stunts went wrong last month, Director Kay Patrick was hit by a car and taken to hospital. Michael Le Vell, who plays Coronation Street's Kevin Webster, reveals to The Sun today what really happened.

Michael says the Corrie Director had a lucky escape: "The throttle was stuck on. It hit her full pelt. She went across the bonnet and then it went across the street and into water on the set. I swear, we all thought she was dead. It was like ‘This can’t happen. We are on Coronation Street — we are supposed to be wrapped in cotton wool’. Kay later sent me a message, saying another minute later and I would have had my back to the car. Fortunately she is OK now. She has had a plate put in her shoulder, her leg is still bad and she is going to be off work for a long, long time.”
