Four Coronation Street stars have signed new contracts which will see them stay on the show for at least another year.
Brooke Vincent and Kym Marsh, who play Sophie Webster and Michelle Connor respectively, have both signed new deals committing them to the show until the middle of 2016.
Catherine Tyldesley and Jennie McAlpine, who are both returning to their roles as Eva Price and Fiz Stape after giving birth, have also signed up to stay until next year, The Mirror reports.
The news will be welcomed by Coronation Street fans following the announcement that both Alison King and Craig Charles will be bowing out of the soap.
King, who plays popular character Carla Connor, will be taking a break from the show next year for creative reasons.
Meanwhile, fans will see Charles's final scenes as Lloyd Mullaney in the autumn, following his decision to leave the soap in order to concentrate on filming new episodes of Red Dwarf.

Catherine Tyldesley and Jennie McAlpine are bearable in small doses but I haven't missed them at all during their absences.
