ITV Coronation Street's Max Turner star Paddy Bever poses with new characters viewers are yet to see

Max Turner made a reappearance on the cobbles last year with not just a new face but a new attitude. Coronation Street fans were left floored back in September when a 'stranger' appeared in David Platt's house.

It was in fact David's adopted son who is now being played by Paddy Bever after he took over the role from Harry McDermott who had played Max in the ITV soap since 2010. The 11-year-old, from Bury, left to continue with his acting studies and explore other opportunities leading to Paddy being cast in the role.
