ITV has confirmed today that James Burrows, who plays Ali Neeson in Coronation Street, is leaving the show.
The actor has already filmed his last scenes which are set to air next month.
Mr Curry Sauce told the Sun: "Ali’s been one of the most popular characters on the cobbles (me: say what?) but the time has come for him to leave. He’s at war with murderer Gary Windass over ex Maria Connor and the pair will be involved in a brutal showdown on the cobbles soon. Viewers will be worried Gary will claim his third victim."
A spokesperson for Coronation Street has confirmed that James is soon to leave the show behind but refused to share any details of his final scenes.
