Coronation Street fans were amazed to see Kevin Webster appear to grow a full beard by the end the soap's latest instalment. Viewers were startled when the mechanic appeared to flit from a more clean-shaven look at the start of Friday night's episode to sporting a 'full beard' in less than hour.
Soap watchers have recently seen Kevin, played by Michael Le Vell, reunited with his wife Abi after Kevin discovered the grieving mum had a one-night stand following the murder of her son Seb Frankin. Drug addict Abi relapsed and in shocking scenes she gave birth to a baby boy after going into labour at the side of a road.
Kevin is now supporting his wife, who he married in November, in her custody battle for baby Alfie after he was placed in care following the death of his father Imran Habeeb. Kevin admitted he still had feelings for Abi as she planned to flee with Abi to Costa Rica before the horror crash that killed Imran.
