Fab British actress June Whitfield is to join Coronation Street.
The official Corrie site report that June's been signed up to play Blanche Hunt's friend, May, and she'll tell Deirdre how her mother has died. News of Blanche's death will reach the cobbles in a couple of months. Undertaker Archie Shuttleworth will return for Blanche's funeral too.

That is great news, I love June, she is a fantastic actress.
She's going to be a great addition. Hope she sticks around and becomes friends with Emily and Betty.
Looking forward to this.
She has a full time role on Last of the Summer Wine so I expect her Corrie visit will be a fleeting one.
Oh no, I'm sadly dreading the news of Blanche's death on the cobbles. I feel as though we're in a bit of limbo now, and after her funeral it's all just so final. Alas, I'm sure these scenes will be great.
...I love June Whitfield. D'you remember The Glums? And that beautiful woman on AbFab was priceless. She is so good on Last of the Summer Wine as well. What a woman.
