BBC star Alex Frost has revealed he’s joined Coronation Street in a guest role.
The actor, best known for his roles in The Reckoning and Doctors. took to social media to announce the news.
Alex said: “My first episode of my guest role in #CoronationStreet #Corrie begins in 2 weeks’ time on Monday 2 nd Sep at 8 pm on ITV.
“I got to act alongside my good friend @nickharrisinsta and the brilliant Channique Sterling-Brown. Let’s see what happens.”
Alex’s scenes with Channique Sterling-Brown, who plays Dee Dee Bailey suggests it’s part of Joel Deering’s demise.
The solicitor – who is played by actor Calum Lill in the ITV soap – has abused a series of young women, most recently Lauren Bolton.
Joel’s fiance Dee-Dee Bailey finally found the missing piece to the puzzle and put everything that he’d done together.
She realised he was Lauren’s secret boyfriend from all those months ago, working out he’d hidden the necklace’s existence from the police, lying to her in the process.
Heading to the hospital to ask Lauren, Dee-Dee was horrified to find Joel there visiting Frankie – and it all clicked into place.
And when she spoke to Lauren, she got the truth out of her – how Joel had groomed and abused her.
But more than that – she realised that Joel had drugged Lauren and then left her locked in the flat to miscarry alone.
