Coronation Street. But there is one person who is even more thrilled than he is – his mum. Wallace, who plays Lucas Kempton, whose arrival on the cobbles threatens Carla and Peter’s relationship, says that, “My mum couldn’t wait till I started on
Coronation Street. She texted me the night before my first episode went out and said, ‘You’ve made an old woman very happy’.”

Actor Glen Wallace, who plays new character Lucas Kempton, says Coronation Street offers a bit of normality in a very abnormal time. The actor jokes that his mum will be texting him so often during each episode that he will have to turn off his phone.

Alison King is beloved as Coronation Street s Carla Connor, delivering witty one-liners and sweeping Peter Barlow off his feet time and time again.
After Carla admitted that she wouldn t have chosen him if she knew then what she knew now, her confession devastated an eavesdropping Peter, who quickly stormed out.
However, that only meant that he missed the part of Carla and Lucas chat where she told him that she loves Peter and would never give up on him despite his faults.
In the second episode, tensions between Carla and Peter only worsened when Jenny (Sally Ann Matthews) managed to convince Carla to have a drink with her and send Sarah to the meeting instead, which later led to a tipsy Carla lying to Peter when she made out that she was still going to Harrogate.
