Devotees of believe they've figured out who Gail Platt will actually marry before she bids farewell to the cobbles, and it seems it won't be her current flame Jesse Chadwick.
Soap icon Helen Worth, known for her portrayal of Gail, is poised to depart from the long-standing soap after an impressive half-century run. Her imminent exit was revealed back in June, initially set to play out with a storyline including Gail's former spouse, Martin Platt, played by Sean Wilson.
However, after reports surfaced that Wilson had exited the roledespite completing several weeks' worth of filmingthe producers called upon previous star John Thomson, portrayer of Jesse, to make a comeback for Gail's swansong. This week saw Jesse make his return, unveiling that he and Gail rekindled old flames during a holiday tryst in Thailand sometime ago.
In spite of a lukewarm reception from her kin, Gail is evidently besotted with Jesse, adamant that he remain in town. Furthermore, recent leaks suggest that Gails concluding narrative will see her walking down the aisle once more, marking her seventh matrimonial venture.
An informant divulged to The Sunday People: "The wedding scenes are being filmed and when they air, viewers will be gripped. As with any soap wedding, they will have to wait and see whether Gail makes it down the aisle or not.", reports .
Gail has been down the aisle with Brian Tilsley (Christopher Quinten) - twice, Martin Platt, Richard Hillman (Brian Capron), Joe McIntyre (Reece Dinsdale), and Michael Rodwell (Les Dennis).
Yet, while many might bet on Jesse being her next groom, some eagle-eyed soap aficionados believe they've cracked the case of her 'true' betrothed - and it's not him.
On a Coronation Street Facebook fan page, speculation is rife. One fan questioned: "Does Gail really need to be married again." Another suggested a bombshell return: "What if all along Martin Platt is coming back and that's who we see waiting for her at the wedding."
A third supported this theory: "Yes! I was sad he never came back." Meanwhile, another fan predicted a major plot twist: "Now this would be a twist." Doubts are cast over "shifty" Jesse as one viewer expressed skepticism: "I don't think it's Jesse. He's too shifty and she's supposed to be getting her happy ending?" Another concurred about Jesse's dubious nature: "Yeah he's definitely up to something."
Helen Worth, who plays Gail, announced her departure earlier this year, reflecting: "This year felt like the perfect time to leave the show after celebrating 50 years in the most wonderful job on the most wonderful street in the world."
"I made the decision at the start of the year and spoke to the producers who were very kind and understanding. I have been truly blessed to have been given the most incredible scripts week in week out, and to have worked with fantastic actors, directors and a brilliant crew. The past 50 years have flown by and I don't think the fact that I am leaving has quite sunk in yet."
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX
