New contract for Craig Gazey

Craig Gazey, who plays butcher/gardener/window cleaner Graeme Proctor has signed a new contract which will keep him in Coronation Street until at least March 2011, Digital Spy report.

Talking about the future, Craig said, "I've just signed another year's contract, so I'm definitely here now until at least March 2011. We were discussing options for Graeme to get a family but the main thing for me was how much Graeme was unrequited over his time on the Street. I basically pleaded with them that someone has to love him eventually. It'd seem that a lot of the viewers have a fondness to Graeme, so it'd make sense for someone to see that on the Street. We have to change the dynamics of Graeme now."

Craig has been shortlisted for the best newcomer category in this year's National Television Awards. All votes must be in by noon next Wednesday and the results will be announced later that evening in the awards show live on ITV1 at 7:30. Click here to vote.

  1. I can see him and Rosie getting together, even if for a short while. it would be like Maxine and Ashley all over again so there *is* precendent!

  2. Nooooo! Rosie is a nasty character, and graeme is essentially good hearted. Maxine was a bit bimboish, but she wasn't selfish and manipulative and cared about only her own ends. i'd hate to see them together.

  4. Excellent news! Graeme is my favourite Corrie character ever. I'll be extremely dischuffed if Craig Gazey doesn't win best newcomer.
    Hmm I can't decide if I want Graeme and Rosie to get it on or not.

  5. It will be great to see more of Graeme but NOT with the selfish and manipulative Rosie, she would use him and discard him and would break his heart - NO!

  6. Definitely keep our lad away from that self-serving little witch! I can't see her wanting to have anything to do with him anyway, unless we suddenly find out his family is minted or something.
