Coronation Street has cast former Brookside star Simon O'Brien for a new romance storyline, Digital Spy reveals today.
Simon is best known as Brookside's Damon Grant, and has landed the role of Sean Tully's new fella, Frank Bardsley.
A Corrie insider told Digital Spy: "While Sean is smitten, there may be more to Frank than meets the eye. Frank went to school with local undertaker George Shuttleworth, who knows details about his past and is wary of him. Is Frank the same guy that George knew all those years ago, or has he changed his ways?"
Digital Spy understands that Frank is a guest character who'll be appearing on screen for the next couple of months.
