ITV Coronation Street fans worried over Will Mellor's return amid BBC Strictly Come Dancing stint

Coronation Street fans have shared their concern after discovering Will Mellor will be returning to Coronation Street amid his stint on Strictly Come Dancing. The actor is currently wowing viewers with his moves on the hit BBC One dance show.

On Saturday night, Will got Strictly fans hot under the collar as they watched him channel Patrick Swayze from the raunchy film Dirty Dancing for the show's Movie Week special. He and his professional dance partner Nancy Xu performed the American Smooth to Cry To Me from the 1987 movie.
