Coronation Street Chit Chat - Corrie news catch-up

It's time for another in our series of Coronation Street Chit Chat, where we bring you all the snippets and loose ends of Corrie news that haven't made it into their own blog post as they weren't sexy enough.

Current Corrie cast:

News that William Roache (Ken Barlow) bedded over 1,000 women has made its way to Canada where William is doing the rounds on a fan tour. Following complaints, the media have been banned from attending. Mind you, William's current girlfriend Emma Jesson says she's relaxed about all the fuss.

Malcolm Hebden (Norris Cole) was taken to hospital, thankfully it's nothing serious.

Chris Fountain (Tommy Duckworth) likes to learn his Corrie script at the last minute, yes he does.

Jane Danson (Leanne Barlow) says Alex Bain (Little Simon) is like a son to her in real life. Aww.

Charlie Condou (Marcus Dent) talks about the charities close to his heart.

Real cops called in to advise on Frank Foster's murder.

Ex-Corrie cast:

Roy Barraclough (Alec Gilroy) says current Corrie storylines are not up his Street. Not any more.
