Actress Jacqueline Leonard is set to return to Coronation Street as Linda Hancock
Coronation Street fans will be delighted to hear that actress Jacqueline Leonard will be making a full-time return to the cobbles this year. Leonard first appeared on the popular ITV soap in February 2015 as the ex-wife of Owen Armstrong. Now, she is set to make a dramatic comeback as her grandson Joseph's struggles come to the forefront.
Joseph's Issues and Linda's Arrival
Producer Iain MacLeod revealed that Joseph's issues, currently being portrayed on screen, will lead to Linda's return. Joseph falls behind at school, prompting Linda to step in as his fairy godmother. She tries to fix the situation by providing financial help, which creates a dilemma for Chesney and Gemma. They feel that by accepting Linda's help, they are giving up control of Joseph's life. However, they also recognize that Joseph needs support. The storyline aims to depict realistic family dynamics while providing moments of fun.
A Story Inspired by Ken Barlow
MacLeod also shared that Linda's return storyline takes inspiration from Ken Barlow's original story on Coronation Street. The plot will be a long-running one, and Linda's arrival will serve as a catalyst for the events to come. MacLeod hopes that viewers will relate to the down-to-earth family drama and find it close to their own experiences.
Coronation Street fans can look forward to Jacqueline Leonard's return as Linda Hancock and the intriguing storyline that unfolds as a result. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development!
