It's been reported that Sean Wilson, known for his role in the popular soap opera Coronation Street, was recently seen in the vicinity of the show's set. The 59-year-old actor, who played a prominent character for two decades starting in 1985, was photographed alongside his longtime girlfriend as they took a leisurely walk near the ITV production base. Sean's character had a brief return in 2018, where he moved to New Zealand following his son David's sexual assault.
Fans were thrilled when it was announced on social media earlier this summer that Sean's character Martin would be making a comeback as part of his ex-wife Gail's exit storyline. However, it was later revealed that Sean had stepped down from the role for personal reasons, leading to major script changes to accommodate his absence. This was despite already having filmed numerous scenes. It's unclear why he had to step down, but fans were happy to see him return to social media, where he shared a cryptic photo with the caption "Xx."
In a follow-up post, Sean expressed his gratitude for all the love and support he had received during his time away. And now, he has been spotted walking near the show's set, just a short distance away. The photos show Sean, dressed in sunglasses and a large hat, carrying a piece of artwork under his arm. He can be seen glancing towards the production base, leaving fans to wonder what he may have been up to in the area.
It's been confirmed that Sean's character will now be played by comedian and actor John Thomson, who is returning to the show after a 14-year break. This comes as a surprise to fans, who were expecting to see Sean back on their screens. But it seems that Sean is still keeping a close eye on the show, as he was spotted just a short walk away from the set in Trafford, Greater Manchester.
It's clear that Sean's walk along Blue Street in MediaCity, Salford, would have given him a great view of the 7.7 acre production site where Coronation Street has been filmed since 2013. In other photos, he can be seen arm in arm with his partner Carol Hammond. Executive producer Iain Macleod had previously teased a "happy ending" for Gail's character, stating that she would not be killed off. It remains to be seen if these plans have been altered, but fans can expect to see the storyline unfold in the coming weeks.
