ITV Coronation Street first look as George's sister Glenda arrives and Jodie Prenger teases character and change for role

The first member of George Shuttleworth's family is set to arrive on the cobbles of Coronation Street - and they won't be doing so quietly. The character, played by Tony Maudsley, made his debut on the famous street in 2020 and next week, fans of the ITV soap will be introduced to his sister Glenda.

The week starts with Sean Tully attempting to cook a roast to impress his son Dylan. But when he receives a text from Dylan telling him that he’s gone for a pizza with his mates, Sean serves up the overcooked pork to George, Eileen and Todd Grimshaw. But there's a dinner disaster as when George takes a bite, he is alarmed to realise he’s broken a tooth.

George promises Eileen that he’ll see the dentist, but Mr Pugh's funeral must come first. A guy called Troy approaches George, but having discovered that Troy works for the opposition and was hoping to buy the business, George tries to wrestle his notebook from him. As the two men grapple on the cobbles, Mrs Pugh arrives and watches with disapproval. Todd confronts George with the written offer from Rest Easy of £400k, is George tempted to sell after all?
