There's big news in the world of Coronation Street as it's been announced that Calum Lill, who plays the villainous solicitor Joel Deering, will be leaving the show in the coming months. Fans have been on the edge of their seats waiting for Joel's sinister secrets to be revealed, and it looks like the time has finally come.
It was back in September when Joel first arrived on the cobbles, but it wasn't until May that viewers started to see his true colors. He abused his former colleague Lauren Bolton and even went as far as attacking her with a chair leg. Lauren was forced to go into hiding for months, but not before Joel learned that she was carrying his baby. In a shocking turn of events, he cruelly induced her labor in an attempt to kill their unborn child.
Thankfully, Lauren gave birth to a healthy baby girl named Frankie, but Joel's devious plans didn't end there. He's now plotting to send Lauren away to Northern Ireland so he can continue to evade justice. But his days of getting away with his crimes are numbered as Doctors star Alex Frost has been cast to join the show and play a role in Joel's downfall.
Alex took to Twitter to share his excitement about his upcoming guest role on the show, revealing that his first episode will air in two weeks. He also mentioned that he had the pleasure of working with his good friend Nick Harris and the talented Channique Sterling-Brown.
It seems that Alex's character, Dee Dee Bailey, will play a crucial role in exposing Joel's lies and manipulations. Calum has previously stated that he knew his time on the show would be limited, as Joel's comeuppance was inevitable. However, he's loved every moment of playing such a complex and intriguing character.
But don't worry, Calum already has his next job lined up. He's set to play Fleshcreep in a pantomime at the end of the year. Sources reveal that while Calum's time on Coronation Street may be coming to an end, Joel's troubles are just beginning. His secrets will slowly start to unravel, and he'll soon face the consequences of his actions.
It's been an exciting and bittersweet journey for Calum, but he's grateful for the opportunity to play such a dynamic character. And while his time on the show may be coming to an end, his career is just getting started. Fans will have to tune in to see how it all unfolds for Joel Deering, the sinister villain of Coronation Street.
