Coronation Street is set to see the return of Lauren Bolton as Cait Fitton reprises the role after a short stint on the cobbles which started in November last year. Fans will remember the character for being Max Turner's love interest as he was groomed by her dad's gang led by Griff Reynolds.
Griff was the far-right extremist who viewers of the ITV soap watched terrorise Alya Nazir and councillor Maria Connor as well as refugee Daryan Zahawi who was brutally attacked by racist thugs while working at Alya's restaurant Speed Daal before leaving the cobbles.
Things took an even darker turn when Alya saved the lives of her neighbours by driving the Speed Daal van away from the street knowing there was an active bomb inside after it was planted by the extremist gang with Max being the one to again alert them to the danger alongside then-love interest Lauren, who was also the daughter of one of the gang members.
