However, it won't be Claudia, played by the fab Rula Lenska, he says. So, who will it be? It can't be Steve and Becky because both of them have criminal records and that's why the pub had to go in Liz's name as licensee rather than Steve's. It's also why the Rovers was in Vera's name rather than Jack's when the Duckworths had the place.
So, here's the thing. Who would you like to run the Rovers and in reality, who do you think it will be? I just hope Tracy Barlow not's involved, that's all! And I wonder if Kevin Webster's lottery win comes into this at all. Can anyone see Kev as a pub landlord?
PS: And yes, that is me and Sunny Jim otuside the Rovers Return, taken on a very special day last year when we got to visit the Coronation Street set!
