Eagle-eyed Coronation Street fans believe a backstage blunder from one of the show’s stars may have revealed the mystery of the Rovers Return landlord.
Claire Sweeney took to Instagram this week to reveal her partner for the upcoming series of ITV’s Dancing on Ice, but in doing so, some fans believe she also revealed the identity of the soap’s new pub boss.
Sweeney, who plays Cassandra Plummer on the beloved ITV soap, will be one of 12 celebrities on this year’s Dancing on Ice.
She will be partnered up with Season 15 finalist Colin Grafton, revealing the news in an Instagram post outside of the Rovers Return on Coronation Street.
Posting on the social media account, Claire said: “The wait is over… Team Claire & Colin is here."
While many commenters were wishing the pair luck for the upcoming series, some eagle-eyed fans believe Claire has given away a major Coronation Street storyline.
The name Jenny Connor, the character played by Sally-Ann Matthews, can be seen above the entrance to the Rovers Return in the shot, with fans believing that signals her return as the landlady of the pub.
Jenny had been pushed out of the pub when it was taken over this year.
