Coronation Street bringing in HIV storyline


There's a story in The Sun that says Coronation Street is bringing in a HIV storyline which will affect Seb Franklin.

The Sun says that Seb Franklin, played by actor Harry Visinoni, will discover he has HIV in scenes next month.

It is understood that Coronation Street has been working closely with HIV charity the Terrence Higgins Trust.

Mr Curry Sauce tells The Sun: “Coronation Street have never been afraid of tackling taboo subjects and this is not different. Seb’s storyline isn’t going to see him go on a huge ‘journey’ and be drawn over months and years but the initial scenes are sure to be shocking.

“The episodes, which will air next month, will show realistic attitudes both positive and negative to HIV. Producers aren’t going to sugarcoat it, but they also want to show that life doesn’t end with a diagnosis.”
