    Exclamation Will (Leon Ockenden)

    ​Watch out, Steve! Coronation Street bosses have cast Waterloo Road and Mr Selfridge star Leon Ockenden as one of Michelle Connor's old flames.

    The actor has landed the role of Michelle's first love Will, who'll turn up in Weatherfield to book her as his wedding planner.

    Michelle has no idea who her new client is until they come face-to-face. However, once they're back in each other's orbits again, it's not long before they're taking a trip down memory lane as they remember their time together as teenagers.

    Will's arrival will come as Michelle's husband Steve is still over in Spain, helping his brother Andy.

    With Michelle left juggling the running of The Rovers, her own business and helping to look after Steve's daughter Amy, it's a very stressful time for her - so she may well welcome having someone to take her mind off everything.

    Show bosses have confirmed that Will's arrival will put Michelle's marriage to the test, but just how far will things go?

    A Coronation Street spokesperson teased: "It soon becomes clear that there is unfinished business for the former lovebirds as they spend more and more time together planning the wedding.

    "Can Michelle and Will avoid temptation, or will they risk both their relationships by letting their feelings for each other take over? Will Steve arrive back in Weatherfield in the nick of time?"

    Ockenden, who played PE teacher Hector Reid in Waterloo Road and Serge De Bolotoff in Mr Selfridge, has already started filming at Coronation Street and will make his first appearance in April.

    Simon Gregson, who plays Steve, will also be returning to filming this month following an extended break. He'll be back on our screens in April too - though who knows what he'll be returning to...

    Perhaps she's tempted, which Liz picks up on prompting her to phone Steve and demand he return immediately. Simon Gregson has been back filming for a few weeks so Steve will be home soon.

    Wouldn't it be refreshing if they brought in a new family instead of constantly bringing back old characters. The Nazirs could go. They do nothing for the show.
