Coronation Street fans were bowled over last week when Glenda Shuttleworth made her debut. Last Friday, viewers of the ITV soap were introduced to the sister of undertaker George Shuttleworth. She instantly made an impact on the cobbles, helping to save George's skin at work when he took too many strong painkillers.
Coronation Street fans immediately welcomed a new character with open arms as she swept onto the famous cobbles in Friday night's episode (August 5). When undertaker George Shuttleworth arrived for Mr Pugh’s funeral and revealed that he had taken girlfriend Eileen Grimshaw’s strong painkillers to ease his toothache, it was clear that he was as high as a kite.
It seems Coronation Street is the most romantic place to be next week as Sean Tully finds a new love interest. At number 11 Eileen Grimshaw guesses Sean is pining for Laurence, a handsome dentist he recently met at a wake.

As viewers of the ITV soap know, the Bistro owner is suffering money troubles and has been hosting themed nights at the restaurant to try and encourage more custom.
Next week's Coronation Street sees Stu Carpenter (Bill Fellows) feel like an outcast following the recent revelations about his past. Kelly Neelan (Millie Gibson) tries to help when she finds him drunk and unconscious and gets him to hospital. However, when Yasmeen Metcalfe (Shelley King) visits, Stu's frustrated that she won't listen to his side of the story.This leaves Stu adamant that he’s clearly not welcome on the Street again.
Sean Tully might be getting another new love interest. Antony Cotton appears to have confirmed Coronation Street's latest casting in a selfie he posted on social media.
Coronation Street star Jamie Kenna has confirmed that he has officially left the show. The actor joined the ITV soap last year as Phill Whittaker. The character became Fiz Stape's night in shining armor after she was left devasted by her partner Tyrone Dobbs' secret affair with their lodger Alina Pop.
