Coronation Street star Tony Maudsley has revealed a shock twist for his character George and love interest Eileen.
George first appeared in Corrie last year.
Over the last few months, he has been trying to impress Eileen Grimshaw, but the two have often found themselves falling out.
However Tony has teased that George will hide something from Eileen, which leaves her shocked.
Speaking to Metro.co.uk, Tony said: “George is innocent, he gets embroiled in it.
“He hides something from Eileen which gives her the biggest shock of her life; I don’t know why he doesn’t expect such a big reaction.
“Yes he is landed in hot water, poor George. This does involve one of Eileen’s most murderous old flames.”
Is he referring to Eileen’s serial killer husband Pat Phelan?
