Meet Gloria's first B&B customer at Rovers Return

This picture shows actor Gregory Cox as an undercover journalist on Coronation Street.  He'll be seen on screen on Sunday, October 14, and Monday, October 15, as Laurence Carnegie - a secret reviewer who is checking out the bed and breakfast at the Rovers Return.

Mr Cox said: “Laurence was a great character to play as he gets treated like a lord by the landlady to impress him and hence get a good review. So ITV caterers provided splendid breakfasts and high teas which I naturally shared with the cast and crew. It was great working up in Manchester as they are much friendlier up there - not a cliche - and my daughter Georgie now lives there, so we could meet up.”

This year the actor, who is married to actress Robin Miller, worked with Mike Figgis on his new film Suspension of Disbelief, due out shortly. He is also busy filming the last episode of Poirot.

Sounds like just the sort of good traditional comedy-esque story that Corrie used to excel at week in, week out, instead of social drama and mad axemen. A good move.
