Coronation Street fans couldn't believe their eyes as a drunken Jenny Connor got amorous with Stephen Reid before being stopped in her tracks by friend and barmaid Gemma Winter. The Rovers Return landlady was moping around the bar following her split from toyboy Leo.
Jenny called off her relationship with the newcomer, played by Joe Frost, in scenes aired on the ITV soap earlier this week after she realised his discontent at staying in Weatherfield after turning down his dream job in Canada to be with her.
During Friday's trip to the cobbles (September 2), a heartbroken Jenny, decided to hit the bottle to drown her sorrows alongside Stephen after he approached the bar and made a cheeky move, pretending to think she was stepdaughter Daisy Midgeley. But unbeknown to Jenny, the cash-strapped businessman approached her after discovering she was the sole owner of the Rovers.
