The official Coronation Street website at itv.com have a story up about Ryan Connor's return and Carla's brother Rob Donovan's arrival. The pair are billed as Coronation Street's new two "street fighting hunks"
Ryan Connor will return after he has been kicked out of Glasgow University, and he will be carrying a dark secret that will force Michelle to fight tooth and nail to get him back on the straight and narrow.
Rob is fresh out of prison, he pairs up with Ryan and teaches him about family loyalty. This is quite an exciting development, I've always loved the Connor clan, so to see them come back with fighting spirit is great!
Actor Sol Heras will be playing the new Ryan Connor, previously having appeared in Rock Rivals and Hollyoaks Later.
Anyone know why Ben Thompson, who played the old Ryan Connor, isn't returning?
