Former Coronation Street star Helen Flanagan has teased a return to the cobbles, after seven years away from the show.
The actor first joined the ITV soap in 2000 as sassy Rosie Webster, the oldest daughter of Kevin and Sally Webster.
During her time in Weatherfield, Rosie was involved in a number of scandals and conflicts, including a secret affair with teacher John Stape, which resulted in her kidnapping.
After playing the role on and off for 18 years, Flanagan left Coronation Street in 2018 to have her second child. However, her character is still frequently mentioned on the soap by her parents.
Now, Flanagan has hinted that Rosie could be making a surprise return, as she is still on good terms with the Corrie team.

"I can't say too much, but it could be possible that I could go back," she told The Sun. "I get on with everyone there. There's nothing personal going on."
"It changed my life so much and my loyalty is with them. I feel like Rosie's a part of me," she reflected.

The star went on to highlight the importance of her character, saying: "They do need me. They do need Rosie."
Meanwhile, Rosie's dad Kevin would certainly be pleased to see her back amid his recent cancer storyline. The long-serving character was diagnosed with testicular cancer earlier this year, and is currently undergoing chemotherapy.
Terrified Kevin has been struggling to come to terms with the diagnosis and has been lashing out at his friends and family. Could Rosie return to support her dad?
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX.
