Coronation Street fans were stunned as they finally discovered who Sam Blakeman has been sending letters to. Viewers of the ITV soap have seen the youngster, played by Jude Riordan, posting handwritten notes to a mystery recipient but during Monday night's trip to Weatherfield, it was revealed that it is in fact Harvey Gaskell.
The recipient has come as a bit of a surprise as drug lord Harvey, played by Will Mellor during his stint on the cobbles last year, was the one who killed Sam's mum, Natasha Blakeman. The hairdressing tycoon was shot dead by the baddie in a case of mistaken identity.
Harvey was actually looking to get revenge on Leanne Battersby after she became a police informant in order to get Simon Barlow out of the drug gang he had got himself in to. When Harvey ended up behind bars, he plotted his escape during a frightening Halloween on the cobbles.
