In the world of Coronation Street, there was no conman quite as infamous as Lewis Archer. His schemes and tricks were legendary, and his smooth-talking ways often left his victims with empty pockets and broken hearts. Even though his character met his demise in 2019, actor Nigel Havers recently hinted that a return to the cobbles may still be possible.
Lewis first graced our screens in 2009, and during his time on the street, he managed to scam both Audrey Roberts and Peter Barlow out of significant sums of money. The 72-year-old actor joined Good Morning Britain to discuss his current role on Channel 5's historical series, Sandringham: A Royal Residence. In the show, Nigel delves into the mysteries and grandeur of Sandringham House and its sprawling 20,000-acre estate.
As the hosts, Ed Balls and Ranvir Singh, chatted with Nigel, the topic of his time on Coronation Street naturally came up. Ranvir playfully teased Nigel about his versatility, mentioning his past involvement in politics, the Olympics, and even the royal family. She then added, "We didn't even talk about Corrie - we always talk about Corrie!" To which Nigel replied, "We always talk about Corrie. You never know, I may come back!" Ranvir agreed, saying, "You may come back!" But before she could ask any further questions, Ed reminded her that it was time to move on to the next segment of the show.
Fans of Coronation Street will remember that Lewis once posed as his own twin brother, Hugh, before being exposed by Audrey and Gail Platt. His character met a dramatic end on New Year's Day in 2019, when he suffered a heart attack. However, during a previous appearance on Good Morning Britain in 2019, Nigel hinted at the possibility of a comeback, suggesting that Lewis may have a twin brother living in Australia.
Presenter Piers Morgan even speculated that Lewis could have faked his own death, given his history as a conman. And let's be honest, anything is possible when it comes to Lewis Archer. So, who knows, maybe one day we'll see him back on the cobbles, causing trouble and charming his way into our hearts once again.
