Coronation Street's Jude Appleton recently departed Weatherfield, but we know his time on the soap isn't up just yet.
Last night (November 26) we saw that Mary Taylor and Angie briefly thought Jude had died, but the latter identified the body that was found as someone else.
It's still unclear what this storyline is leading to, but actor Paddy Wallace has now teased that Jude's exit may be very final.
"I can't tell you anything about his final scenes," he said to RSVP Live, "but I can confirm that you will see him again.

"It's an interesting finale for me. Nothing is ever easy with Jude, it's certainly not simple."
When asked if he would make a return to the soap after his exit, he replied: "Well if I told you that then you'd know too much!"
Is that a confirmation that Jude is going to bite the bucket? Or is Paddy just introducing a really big red herring? There are plenty of talks of a New Year's death, and while the unlucky character is rumoured to be Lewis Archer, could it actually be Jude instead?
