Daniel Brocklebank, who plays Billy the vicar Mayhew in Coronation Street, has revealed that there's a huge storyline coming Billy's way.
Speaking at an ITV Media webinar presentation, Daniel said that someone from Billy's past will arrive and the person will cause a bit of a stir. He said that he was on the edge of his seat reading his new scripts when he learned about the new storyline and that he's buzzing for the next few months playing Billy.
I wonder who it might be? My guess, and it could well be wrong of course, is a return of Todd Grimshaw, perhaps, played by a new actor?
You can watch the full video webinar as it's open to all to see. It's fascinating. It's all about Coronation Street reaching out to a new sponsor to take over from Compare the Meerkat/Market and to offer new branding opportunities around Corrie's 60th anniversary too. Corrie producer Iain MacLeod also speaks on the webinar about challenges and opportunities caused by coronavirus.
It's all here.
