Coronation Street star Maureen Lipman has confirmed that a new edition is set to make their debut in the ITV soap - but it comes after a heartbreaking death. There are tragic scenes on the way as viewers will be saying a sad farewell to a Weatherfield favourite.
Spoilers for next week's Corrie have revealed that Evelyn Plummer, played by acting legend Maureen, calls into the café with her beloved dog Cerberus where Roy apologises for missing her birthday party and tells her about Carla’ Connor's problems as she's unaware she's being drugged with LSD by Stephen Reid.
But when Cerberus later shows no interest in his tea, Evelyn is concerned. With Cerberus still sick, a concerned Tyrone insists they take him to the vet. When the vet suggests food poisoning, a guilty Roy reveals he dropped an Eccles cake in the café and fears Cerberus may have eaten it.
