Coronation Street's newest couple have been told they are the 'future' of the ITV soap - despite some complaining about their on-screen romance. Viewers have seen Hope Stape and Sam Blakeman take their friendship to the next level by deciding they are boyfriend and girlfriend.
During Monday night's trip to the cobbles, the friends revealed that they had become an item and their proud parents beamed about them becoming boyfriend and girlfriend. Hope's mum and dad Fiz and Tyrone Dobbs cooed over the pair as they sat together on the sofa before heading off on a date to the cinema
Sam, played by Jude Riordan went all out sporting a suit for the occasion while Hope, played by Isabella Flanagan, showed her disgust as her proud parents tried to get a snap for the memory box. And as she continues to wrap Tyrone around her little finger, the mechanic then paid for the tickets for their first date - and the confectionery to chow down on while watching the movie.
