Coronation Street Fans Shocked as Former Star Makes Surprise Return in New Role

Former Star Plays Unnamed Police Officer in Soap

Coronation Street fans were left stunned this week when a former show star made a surprise appearance on the soap in a brand new role. Actress Eve Gordon, who previously played the character Caitlin Ryan, returned to the programme as an unnamed police officer. The unexpected appearance had viewers doing a double take as they tried to figure out who the familiar face was.

Actress's Previous Role as Craig's Ex-Girlfriend

Eagle-eyed fans may have recognized Eve Gordon from her previous role as Caitlin Ryan, the first girlfriend of Craig Tinker. Caitlin appeared on the show for nine months starting in August 2015. Her character was written out in May 2016, but now the actress has made a surprising comeback in a much smaller role.

A New Character, Not Caitlin

Although Eve Gordon returned to Coronation Street, it seems she is not reprising her role as Caitlin Ryan. In the latest scene involving the police matter, Beth, played by actress Lisa George, did not acknowledge or recognize the police officer, suggesting that it was a different character. This left fans speculating about the identity of the actress's new role.

A Brief Appearance with Tim and Beth

In her new role, Eve Gordon's character briefly questioned Tim and Beth about a recent incident. She had few lines but played her part well as she investigated the situation. Once the matter was resolved, it is unlikely that Eve's character will make any further appearances on the show.

Overall, Coronation Street fans were taken by surprise when Eve Gordon made a surprise return to the soap in a new role. Although viewers initially thought she may be reprising her role as Caitlin Ryan, it became clear that she was playing a completely different character. Despite the brief appearance, fans were delighted to see the former star back on their screens.
