ITV Coronation Street have confirmed this morning that actor Sean Wilson is returning to the show as Martin Platt, David's dad and one of Gail's many ex-husbands.
He'll be returning to the show in March for what ITV say will be "a short time". It is expected that his return will tie-in to David Platt's male rape storyline and Martin comes back for that when he finds out what has happened.
Since leaving Coronation Street, Sean Wilson has become an award-winning cheese maker. Oddly, I saw him on a telly advert on a minor channel on Sky TV this week and I thought to myself "Oh, so he's back in the acting game?" Seems like he really is.
This could be interesting...
