Coronation Street recently announced the comeback of a character and now they're announcing the arrival of someone new. The ITV soap has mysteriously revealed that former Brookside star Simon O'Brien has joined the cast.
He'll play the role of Frank Bardsley, a mysterious new love interest for one Weatherfield resident, but is reportedly then set to have a relationship with an entirely different cobbles character.
Tweeting a picture of Brian on Thursday (May 5), a tweet from the official Corrie account read: "Welcome, the newest member of the team, Frank Bardsley, played by Simon O'Brien! Could love be in the air for a lucky someone on The Street?"
