Coronation Street fans spotted a familiar face in the cast when actor Warren Donnelly joined as Roy Cropper’s new callmate, Roscoe. But his appearance left many scratching their heads and trying to figure out where they know him from, with one puzzled fan writing: "Trying to remember where I've seen the bald guy before." Warren is well-known for his role as police officer Stan Waterman in the Channel 4 comedy drama Shameless. Roscoe’s first episode aired on Wednesday 22 May with him seemingly befriending Roy.
He entered Roy’s cell, which initially scared poor Roy. But Roscoe later returned and explained he is an old friend of Stu Carpenter (Bill Fellows). Warren is no stranger to Coronation Street having had a cameo in 2014.
He played a taxi driver, Ralph Davison who got angry with Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) after Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) refused to pay the Streetcars staff. As Warren’s episode aired, fans were puzzled where they had seen him before. But one pointed out: “Shameless, he was in an episode of life on Mars too”.
Sharing a snap of Warren, his agency wrote alongside it: “Our Warren Donnelly has been busy filming @itvcorrie.” Warren is also a star of the stage and has appeared in lots of pantomimes along with soap actors such as Emmerdale’s Sammy Winward and Coronation Street's Claire Sweeney. Roscoe seemed to be trying to befriend Roy in recent scenes, he gifted him with a copy of his favourite book. However, Roscoe might not be as nice as he makes out as it’s revealed in next week’s storylines Roscoe is working with Griff Reynolds (Michael Condron) and lures Roy to the prison library.
