Casualty has cast an iconic Coronation Street actor for the show’s latest episode.

Connor McIntyre famously played the role of Weatherfield baddie Pat Phelan on the ITV soap, with the character meeting his demise in 2018 after being stabbed by Anna Windass.

It has now been confirmed that the star will appear in this weekend’s episode of Casualty, playing the role of a patient called Kenny Sanders. Further details remain under wraps for now, though the actor is only due to guest-star for one episode.

This Saturday’s episode will also continue a number of storylines, including Stevie’s stalker – with the character set to come face-to-face with the sinister culprit.

Ngozi and Nicole also face a big relationship test after the former’s son caught them kissing, with Nicole giving her an ultimatum of telling him or ending the relationship altogether.

Flynn and the team also get a portable defibrillator from local councillor Anna, though Flynn makes it clear they cannot rely on charity and need proper funding.

Meanwhile, a few years ago, McIntyre spoke about a potential return to Corrie, suggesting he play the role of Phelan’s hypothetical twin brother Matt.
