IT'S only been three days since Sally Lindsay said she was quitting Corrie... But we already know who is being lined up to replace her as The Rovers' landlady!
TV Land can exclusively reveal that Coronation Street bosses are in advanced talks with Footballers' Wives star Zoe Lucker, and should have her signing on the dotted line within weeks. Yay!
Zoe's character will arrive in Weatherfield with her adoring husband (as yet uncast) who is 15 years her senior.
She thinks that part and parcel of being a pub landlady is to flirt outrageously with all the male customers - and sometimes takes things a bit too far.
But her long-suffering hubby always forgives her dalliances. At least, he has done so far...
Our man with his ear to the cobbles says: "Bosses have been working on getting Zoe for weeks and everyone's really excited about the prospect of her joining the show.
"It'll take someone special to replace Shelley but the character they've lined up for Zoe is a classic Corrie landlady - bound to be a winner with viewers. She's perfect."
Zoe quit Footballers' Wives earlier this year to try her hand at other projects.
She dyed her trademark blonde hair dark and made army drama bombshell. But rumour has it that the show isn't much cop. It was relegated from ITV1 to ITV2, but still isn't scheduled to be transmitted any time soon.
After being offered a hefty pay rise, Zoe agreed to return to Footballers' Wives to co-star in a storyline with Joan Collins.
But it's no secret that she's worried about being typecast as bitchy schemer Tanya Turner. So being offered the Corrie job is a real stroke of, er, Lucker.
Being Rovers landlady is one of most high profile jobs in soap and she is in great company - previous pint pullers include Annie Walker (Doris Speed), Bet Lynch (Julie Good year), and Natalie Barnes (Denise Welch).
Well done, Zoe. Make ours a double!
