Perhaps Hayley could decide to become a man again and they could bring in a new male actor to play him. This would be perfect, it would keep two popular characters in the show and also give Hayley and Roy a big storyline.


I'm assuming this is a joke.

An actress who starred in Coronation Street died in the early hours of this morning, it emerged today.

Sophiya Haque, who played barmaid Poppy Morales on the soap, passed away peacefully in her sleep at a London hospital.

The 41-year-old fell ill just before Christmas and was told just days ago she had cancer.

While undergoing tests, Ms Haque, developed a clot on her lungs and died this morning.

Her agent Oliver Thomson broke down in tears today as he told of his shock at losing “such a wonderful friend”.

Sophiya Haque was also a VJ on Channel V Asia and was one of my favourite presenters back in the 90s when I lived in India.

She was funny, entertaining and also a font of knowledge on various musical subjects. So, several years later, to see her turn up on Corrie was a surprise. A pleasant one at that.

RIP Sophiya.

So...

Faye's father turns out to be the same actor who played the copper that was after Becky... but seems to be playing a different character 'Tim' unless I'm mistaken?

I've only just seen this. But great idea, and it's a not an unheard of occurrence. Perhaps it could start of with her going to local football matches and escalate from there?
