Daisy Midgeley’s dramatic final chapter is grabbing attention, but what actress Charlotte Jordan revealed off-screen might be even more surprising. Daisy’s storyline on Coronation Street has taken one explosive turn after another in recent episodes, but it’s what happened outside of Weatherfield that really caught fans off guard. As actress Charlotte Jordan gears up to leave the soap, she made a recent TV appearance that had viewers doing a double take for reasons no one expected.
Daisy’s Big Exit Builds Momentum
Charlotte’s appearance on This Morning was timely as her Coronation Street exit storyline was peaking. The actress, who has portrayed Daisy since 2020, is set to appear in dramatic scenes that are broadcast later this week. Her exit plot has already caused enough drama on the show.
In recent episodes, Daisy and her mother Christina Boyd concocted a dodgy scheme on a fake dating profile. Their target? To trick Jenny Connor into investing in her new boyfriend’s business. But the ruse didn’t quite go according to plan.
After discovering her mum also intended to double-cross her, Daisy had second thoughts. She advised Jenny and revealed the information. The resulting crisis saw PC Kit Green arrestingChristina, with Daisy leaving, reviewing her actions and what her future might look like.
With the story leading up to her departure, fans were already hooked. But Charlotte’s appearance on live television delivered another bombshell, one that everyone was not ready for.
Charlotte’s Real Accent Leaves Viewers Surprised!
As Charlotte spoke to hosts Ben Shepherd, Cat Deeley, and soap expert Sharon Marshall, the internet erupted with reactions, not to her plotline, but to her voice. The Chobham, Surrey-born actress appeared on the show using her natural Southern drawl, a far cry from Daisy’s convincing Northern twang.
Social media erupted in shock. Fans were quick to comment, with one X fan posting that they didn’t know Daisy sounded like that and had such a brilliant northern accent. On Instagram, the praise continues to roll in.
As fans continued to try to wrap their heads around the voice reveal, Charlotte carried on the interview—revealing not just what she thought about quitting the cobbles but sharing some big news regarding her next move.
While Daisy’s departure signifies the end of an era, Charlotte left it known that her soapy days aren’t over yet. Discussing the future, she stated she feels positive about a new beginning. She clarified that she had completed most of the usual soap milestones and thought it was the appropriate time to go. Charlotte also thanked the Corrie crew for their backing and tolerance.
When asked point-blank if she was joining The Archers on BBC Radio 4, Charlotte smiled and said yes. Though she could not say much about the role, she did give one interesting hint: her character will be causing some ruffles.
She further said she’d be beginning quite soon, playing coy with the details but guaranteeing some mayhem in the tranquil village of Ambridge. Whether or not she’ll play it with her own voice or take on a new one is yet to be revealed.
What’s Next for Charlotte After Coronation Street
While Charlotte prepares to debut in The Archers, Daisy’s dramatic farewell continues to unfold on Coronation Street. With Christina’s betrayal exposed and the fallout from her latest scheme still looming, all eyes are on how Daisy will exit the cobbles, and whether her departure leaves the door open for a return.
Charlotte clarified that this is not a goodbye forever for Corrie, revealing the building is close to her heart. And though she’s moving on to cause trouble in a wildly different brand of soap, there’s hope among fans that Daisy might someday return.
For the time being, Charlotte’s future holds new challenges, and perhaps a few more accent surprises. Keep reading Soap Opera Daily for all the latest twists, exits, and shockers from your favorite soaps.
