There’s more upcoming drama on the cobbles tonight as new character Noah Hedley will be making his way to Coronation Street tonight. Noah, who works at the church, will be seen entering the Rovers during Julie Carp’s wake, as he speaks to his friend Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank).

Billy isn’t the only resident he’s familiar with. As well as Noah being familiar with residents, fans may be familiar with the actor, Richard Winsor, as it isn’t his first time in Soapland.

Spoilers previously revealed that things were set to take a turn at Julie Carp’s wake, after a man called Noah enters the Rovers.

However, Theo Silverton also recognises the character, sending shivers down his spine. He then reveals to Todd Grimshaw that he recognises Noah from his conversion therapy, which he was made to attend by his religious parents.

As for fans, they may recognise actor Richard Windsor from his past role in Casualty. Richard played Caleb Knight in the hospital drama from 2014 until 2017, when his character was brutally killed off. In devastating scenes, Caleb was brutally stabbed to death by Scott Ellison while trying to protect his brother Ethan.

It’s not the only big role the actor has starred in. Soap fans may also recognise the star from his role in Hollyoaks in 2011, where he played priest Father Francis. Fans will remember the character for his affair with Carmel McQueen.

Other credits for the actor include Royal Mob, The Machines That Built America, and StreetDance: The Movie.

Noah won’t be the only surprise entrance in the Rovers tonight as Ryan Thomas is set to reprise his role as Jason Grimshaw for Eileen’s exit storyline.

The actor returns to the show after nine years away, and it seems he wastes no time in getting to know a certain female character. It’s now been revealed as newcomer Danielle Silverton, the wife of Theo Silverton.

However, Jason unfortunately won’t be sticking around for long as his final scenes will air next week.

His onscreen mother Eileen, played by Sue Cleaver will bow out of the soap next Friday (June 6) after more than two decades in the role, debuting in 2000. Eileen’s final scenes will see her make a life-changing decision, with Jason heavily involved.
