Meanwhile, according to Coronation Street spoilers, viewers are expressing frustration over the portrayal of Steve McDonald. Let us see if upcoming storylines will give him a chance for redemption!
Sarah Burrill’s Return Confirmed
Sarah Burrill is coming back to Weatherfield after two years away. The 55-year-old actress, who played a neonatal nurse at Weatherfield General, is set to reprise her role again. However, she will be gracing our screen for just two episodes. Cartwright Higgins, her agent, announced the news on social media.
He penned, “Big shout out to our actor Sarah Burrill, who will return to the famous cobbles. Sarah has been confirmed to return for two episodes.” The actress, known for her work on ITV’s Emmerdale and various theatre roles, is making headlines.
Redditors Call Out Steve McDonald
Meanwhile, fans are frustrated with how Steven McDonald has been portrayed as the village idiot. Let us tell you that Steve has been married five times and even remarried two of his ex-wives. In 2003, he had a one-night stand with Tracy, which resulted in their daughter, Amy.
However, sadly, Tracy left him for ex-footballer Tommy Orpington earlier this year after an affair. Will he try to win her back? Additionally, this week, many took to Reddit to vent it out. Fans reminisced about Steve’s transformation on the cobbles. Once a villainous womaniser and dodgy character since 1989, he’s now a lovable, comedic buffoon guy.
One person mentioned that the shift in Steve’s character was driven by the actor, not the show’s bosses, who initially resisted but eventually gave in. They believed the bosses were right and Steve should have remained the same. According to viewers, he may evolve into a character like Mike Baldwin.
Another commented that Steve used to be a fantastic character but noted that, like many others, he could only work with the storylines provided. A third remarked that this change began about 20 years ago. Will he ever turn to his original self? To discover, keep checking Sopa Opera Daily for more Coronation Street spoilers!
