Martin Platt is returning to Coronation Street cobbles after six years away from Weatherfield, and his arrival is set to ruffle feathers among his estranged family
The Coronation Street legend is making a comeback as Martin, six years after he last returned to Weatherfield. He begins filming today and will appear on screen in October as part of Helen Worth’s exit storyline as Gail Platt.
Sean has picked up his first bumper pile of scripts as he prepares to start shooting but how will the rest of the family feel when Martin reveals why he has turned up out of the blue? "Playing Martin has been a joy since day one and in a way, I’ll be slipping back to where I left off, which no doubt will throw a spanner into the heart of the Platt family.
Sean, who left the soap in 2005 to become a cheese-maker, played Martin for 20 years from 1985 to 2005. Martin and his family emigrated to New Zealand in 2018 and he paid one final visit to Weatherfield before his departure to make his peace with David, who was upset that his dad was leaving the country.
