View Full Version : Nina (Mollie Gallagher)
https://www.digitalspy.com/soaps/coronation-street/a29689428/coronation-street-roy-cropper-niece-nina-cast/
Roy Cropper is set to discover even more new family members as his niece arrives in Coronation Street.
It has already been revealed that Roy (David Neilson) looking into his mum's mysterious past next week will uncover that he has a long-lost brother called Richard (Paul Bown).
When the two finally meet, Roy finds out that his brother Richard is actually quite ill and needs someone to look after his teenage daughter Nina – to be played by 21-year-old newcomer Mollie Gallagher.
While Roy agrees to take on responsibility for the young girl, Nina makes it known that she isn't happy about the arrival of this newfound uncle in her family's life.
"I am absolutely delighted to be in Coronation Street," Mollie Gallagher said today (November 5). "I grew up watching the show and it is surreal to be on the set working alongside such incredible actors as David Neilson and Alison King.
"Nina is a really interesting character, she is a bit of an outsider and although she is reluctant to let Roy into her life, she soon realises they have more in common than she first thought."
Taking in troubled youngsters isn't anything new for Roy, but let's hope this goes better than those times he let Fiz or Wayne move in!
"The storyline is a great device to bring Roy's niece Nina into his life, a new relationship with a younger character, a troubled young person in the same way as he took in Wayne, Fiz, Becky and even cared for Carla when she was struggling," David Neilson said.
"It is an interesting dynamic. Roy works well when he has something to focus on, a problem to solve or someone to look out for, particularly someone who others may see as a bit different.
"Roy can identify with that as he has been an outsider himself. It is interesting and it puts him on his mettle. They are different generations and worlds apart but there is a connection between them."

I believe she is a goth, interesting for Roy but I like he is getting some family and a storyline
Will she be moving in with Roy? I can't see how the three of them can share that little flat but it would be nice if Roy and Carla can be a little "family" for her, in some way. Hopefully they won't go down the route of Carla becoming jealous.

Does Carla live with Peter in Ken's house?

carla could also take her under her wing, interesting pairing
I think his brother will die and Nina will become a regular.

Yes Roy takes her in becomes her carer legal guardian
It would be a bit odd if Roy and Carla became "parents" to a teenager but I like the idea of Carla helping to advise her and perhaps seeing something of her teenage self in Nina. They could form a very interesting three generational "family".
Like to think she will work in Underworlds as designer .. I do not know but would Goth fashion be regarded as sexy enough???

OH I hope not another teenager with no parents:wall: and is "hard work" not all young kids are "bad" :ninja:yea a Goth is bit naff but Rosie grew out of her time, so fingers xd this CArla can develop into a nice young person:love:
I like the idea of Roy having to look after a teenager. No doubt she will turn out to be a rough diamond character, who will be reformed in a few months...

OH silly me, I meant Nina not Carla, oh I am still not happy that we have another "attitude" teen.
To some extent, she'll have a reason to be stroppy and difficult, given that her father is about to die and she's going to be left with someone she hardly knows. Even her current grumpiness is understandable, with Roy interfering (with good intentions, of course) and disrupting her life.
what age is nina?
She is 17, which is why Richard asked Roy to look after her when he passes away.

and in college and carer for her sick dad
It's great that they've something in common; I had a feeling it would be bats given they are night-time creatures...
I'm wondering if she will become friends with Mary, who also wore a Victorian-style mourning outfit when Brendan died...
Lockdown must have affected scriptwriters even more than before..... Steve McDonald to be her father????

I lost so many braincells reading that article!
I lost so many braincells reading that article!
… which will no doubt turn out to be a complete load of spherical objects!
It sounds insane, even by Corrie standards. How many unexpected children does Steve have now?
she has a dark heartbreaking storyline this year
Rumour has it she will start a relationship with Asha ...
Online rumours is that she is going to be victim of teenage swarming .. maybe by Kelly and Corey and few others? A young girl was murdered by teenage swarming :( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murder_of_Sophie_Lancaster
There is a love story for Nina. Mollie is great and Nina is unlike any other character on the soap. Newt on Hollyoaks has some flavour of Nina a little bit in terms of being sub cultural. The love story is unique ? I hope it will be pleasantly surprising. The love story turns to a massive issue led story in terms of tolerance of minorities and people in sub cultures, who look and feel different.
How do people react to people who don?t look like everyone else ? we will explore that to heartbreaking effect. It draws in Roy, Kevin Abi and becomes a huge emotive community story. It?s a huge year for the teens generally ? the cohort is so strong right now ? Asha is fabulous, Aadi I am really interested in. We?ve got Kelly and will see more of Corey, who will reveal himself to be as unpleasant as we have probably expected. There are some huge stories next year and they provide us with the great foundation for the future ? a spotlight on the stars for the future.
