Khalid will be an ex-soldier turned personal trainer, described by show insiders, the Mirror says, as a “charming rogue who has a wandering eye”.
Mr Curry Sauce tells the Mirror that Liz and Khalid's relationship will be a "torrid fling" and says "Beverley and Jimi’s romantic plotline will be a source of immense fun for viewers".
What do you make of this, Corrie fans? I'd love to see Liz back with Lloyd, would you?
