Listen: Les Dennis reveals all about Michael Rodwell on Corrie

Comedian Les Dennis was interviewed on the Graham Norton show today on BBC Radio 2.

He talks about playing Michael Rodwell on Coronation Street and says it's a dream come true being on the show. 

It's a good interview with lots of laughs and you can listen to it online here.  Les starts talking at 1 hr 30 mins in the show.

Michael Rodwell comes face to face with Gail again next week when she visits him in prison.  Les says that the storyline will pan out so that Gail will see in time that Micheal isn't the monster that she thinks he is.  However, he gets out of jail early and ends up on Gail's doorstep.  He says that there's a love letter involved which has been sent to him - but it might not have been sent to him from Gail.

Les also revealed that Michael will get some family on the show too.  His character will live in a bedsit and they're filming on the same estate where Shameless was filmed.

    Its stretching credibility that someone who broke into your house with small children living there and terrified you would end up on your doorstep and you would take them in whatever sob story they gave you. I think a better introduction should have been thought of.

  2. I really don't think we need any more families joining newcomers.

  3. I think the effort should be put into some of your existing families so they dont seem like dead wood about the place. Put the effort in corrie and I may find them more interesting....

  4. I'm with Frosty on this. How on earth could that ever happen? Someone scares the bejeesus out of you breaking into your own home and somehow this will transpire into a relationship? On what planet?
