Tony Gordon's brother is to make an appearance in Coronation Street at the beginning of December.
Filming has recently taken place for Tony (Gray O'Brien) and Carla Connor's (Alison King) will-they-won't-they wedding and producers have cast Jamie Lee in the role of Pat Gordon, Tony's brother and best man.
A Weatherfield source told DS: "Pat's been mentioned in a few scripts. He was going to be Tony's best man until Tony threw Liam into the role which ultimately killed him. We thought it was about time we explored Tony's past a little more too.
"Carla thinks she's doing the right thing for Tony by inviting his brother now Liam's not around to fulfill the best man duty but Tony, however, isn't prepared for his arrival and soon begins to panic that the web of lies he's been spinning for the past number of months is about to snap around him."
Lee began filming earlier this month and will first appear on screens at the start of December.
His other acting credits include Taggart, The Bill and Casualty.
