Classic Corrie Christmas Moments Countdown - Day 6

The Advent season is upon us once again, and the ITV Coronation Street website are releasing classic clips of classic Corrie Christmases of bygone years. 

Today, they're going back 5 years to Christmas Day 2009. Here's what the website says:

"On Christmas Day Kevin was on the verge of telling Sally that he was leaving her for Molly, when she revealed the news that she had breast cancer."

Kevin was in a real conundrum that Christmas!

The faces of Corrie in 2009

If you remember, last year I had a series of posts looking at the top 12 faces of each Corrie decade - the 1960s, the 1970s, the 1980s, the 1990s and the 2000s. For the next few weeks or so, I’ll be looking at the top 12 faces of each year between 1960 and 2013.
