ITV Coronation Street's Elle Mulvaney looks completely different to Amy Barlow in glam photoshoot snaps

He spent a fair bit of time being one of Coronation Street's hated characters but Corey Brent is back - sort of - as the actor who played him, Maximus Evans, reunited with some of his former co-stars.

Simon Barlow may be trying to cause trouble on-screen but the actor who plays him looked happier than ever as his girlfriend joined him on the red carpet. Alex Bain was among the soap stars out in Manchester to see the latest musical appearing in the city.

Coronation Street fans were left making the same demand after watching one of the show's biggest star's life and career celebrated. Happy Birthday Bill aired on ITV on Tuesday night and paid homage to William Roache ahead of his 90th birthday.

Coronation Street fans have been full of praise for Daniel Brocklebank and Harriet Bibby after the pair shared emotional scenes during Monday night's episode.

He holds the Guinness World Record for being the longest-running TV soap star but does Coronation Street legend William Roache plan to retire any time soon? We wouldn't put any bets on it.

Coronation Street is renowned for its long-standing characters - from Ken Barlow to Rita Tanner. But over the past year, some fresh-faced stars have taken to the cobbles in some of the ITV soap's most hard-hitting storylines to date.

Billy Mayhew has been Weatherfield's very own vicar for eight years now and has seen his fair share of drama on the cobbles - particularly when it comes to matters of the heart.

Coronation Street star Ellie Leach has been showing off a fresh new look while her on-screen character faces a worrying time. Fans of the ITV soap will best know the actress for playing Faye Windass.

Coronation Street star Simon Gregson was reportedly asked to leave a bar after dancing topless at his co-star's leaving party. The ITV soap star, 47, who recently called for his character Steve McDonald to leave Weatherfield, was at a leaving do for his on-screen daughter Alexandra Mardell, who plays Emma Brooker, at Albert’s Schloss in the Manchester Deansgate area in February.

Coronation Street fans were left delighted when Tony Maudsley shared some exciting news on his soap future with them. The actor joined the ITV soap back in 2020 as George Shuttleworth.

Coronation Street star Tanisha Gorey isn't one for posting on social media too often but she quickly drew in the compliments with her latest post on Instagram.

Coronation Street star Alexandra Mardell revealed she had taken a lasting 'reminder' of her character Emma Brooker from the set upon her exit. The 28-year-old has played the bubbly barmaid for four years but announced she was leaving the soap earlier this year. “I actually pinched quite a few bits – but I was allowed to pinch them,” she told OK! magazine.

Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd wowed fans as he showcased an eye-catching look for the new season. The David Platt actor was embracing the sunshine as he reached for an animal print black and white short-sleeved shirt. And his sharp look was a far cry from the hoodies and denim jackets favoured by his soap character.

Jack James Ryan has without a doubt been his older sister's biggest cheerleader as she joined him in the cast of Coronation Street.

After just three months on the cobbles Rebecca Ryan has bowed out of Coronation Street as Lydia Chambers.

Coronation Street star Rebecca Ryan is already shaking off her bunny boiler character's image as she debuted a stunning new look.

She's been causing havoc for Adam Barlow but if Coronation Street fans had thought she had gone far enough, Lydia Chambers took it a step further. The bunny boiler, played by Rebecca Ryan, has convinced Adam's wife Sarah Barlow that the pair have been having an affair since she arrived in Weatherfield at the end of last year.

The newest Dragon to appear in the famous Den, Steven Bartlett, was caught off guard last night when he heard himself being mentioned by Coronation Street characters Shona Platt (Julia Goulding) and Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney). The social media businessman, 29, posted a clip of the Monday 21 March's episode on Twitter with the caption, "Ummm excuse me what ????", as he saw the Weatherfield residents refer to him as the same title of his book, "a happy sexy millionaire".

Nothing gets past soap fans and eagle-eyed Coronation Street viewers think they've spotted a subtle yet poignant tribute in latest scenes.

Adam Barlow thought he had finally made a breakthrough with his tormentor Lydia Chambers - only then to be pushed over the balcony of a shopping centre.
