It is no secret that the curtain is falling for Gail Platt on Coronation Street. Actress Helen Worth has played the character for over 50 years and is now ready to bid goodbye to it and the soap. But are the fans ready to see Helen leave Corrie as Gail? Well, that’s a different story altogether. But the fact is that her exit storyline spills out as soon as next week!
Coronation Street spoilers reveal that comedian John Thomson is returning as Jesse Chadwick to the soap, as part of Gail’s exit storyline. When he arrives in town, much to everyone’s shock, it will be revealed that Jesse and Gail met in Thailand years ago, during her holiday. The two remained in touch ever since.
Thus, when Jesse learns of Bethany’s disastrous surgery, he rushes over to Weatherfield to lend his support to the distraught Platt family. The spoilers tease that in the upcoming episodes, Jesse and Gail’s friendship will take a romantic turn as she begins to come to terms with the new changes in her life.
This romantic twist will certainly prove to be a sore spot for Jesse’s ex, Eileen Grimshaw, as she also happens to be Gail’s neighbor and nemesis. Amid the romantic drama, the town will feel shockwaves when the news of villain Joel Deering’s death spreads through Weatherfield. In recent, episodes, he did not show up for his court hearing, and later left Dee-Dee a rather disturbing voice message, that sounded a lot like a suicide note.
