Mr Seven Shops is about to become Mr Eight Shops, when Coronation Street's Dev Alahan buys the kebab shop following Jerry Morton's departure.

I was wondering how Eileen would get her regular fix of meat products of dubious origin, but I can relax now. But it's bad news for Darryl, who apparently wanted to carry on the family business, and presumably it won't go down well with Amber once she finds out that her dad has upset her boyfriend.

It seems that Corrie's bosses are putting their faith in Jimmi Harkishin (Dev), giving him this plot as well as the Nina/Tara love triangle. The poor man has been relatively plotless for years.

yuck, i was hoping this was the last we'd see that of that kebab shop

There's already been a million and one women in the life of the Devster including Deirdre Barlow and it looks like he's going to get another notch on his bedpost soon. Yup, Dev Alahan will get a new love interest on Coronation Street with the arrival of flirty Jodie Morton who opens up a takeaway on the cobbles.

Actress Samantha Seager, 32, will play Jodie, says The Daily Mirror. Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) will be smitten by her as well as her pizzas, burgers and fish and chips. Samantha has appeared in Casualty, Where The Heart Is and Doctors. A Corrie source told the paper: "It was decided to give the character a new love interest and let Dev do what he does best - charm a lady in his own inimitable way.

Well its not her

Former Star Wars actress Ayesha Dharker has joined the cast of Coronation Street as another of Dev Alahan's love interests.

The 31-year-old Bollywood actress - who appeared as Queen Jamillia, the Queen of Naboo in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones - will play Prem (Madhav Sharma) and Nina Mandal's (Harvey Virdi) daughter, Tara.

On her arrival, Dev (Jimmi Harkishin) finds himself torn between mother and daughter.

Dharker's first scenes are due to air in mid-October.
