New Details on 'Coronation Street' Cast Exits

Lisa George, who portrayed Beth Tinker on Coronation Street for 13 years, has exited the soap in an emotional storyline where her character leaves Weatherfield to protect her son, Craig, from the corrupt police officer Kit Green. Beth's departure was influenced by a blackmail plot where Kit threatened to ruin Craig's career. Fans expressed mixed reactions, with some feeling her exit was rushed. Meanwhile, Christopher Harper confirmed his permanent departure from the role of Nathan Curtis, a character known for a disturbing grooming storyline. Harper emphasized he wouldn't return, ensuring Nathan's storyline focuses on justice rather than redemption. Andy Whyment, who plays Kirk Sutherland, reassured fans that he remains committed to the show despite Beth's exit.
