She insists to Jenny that they need to raise the cash themselves to buy the pub, but can they get the money?

The Rovers and Purplebricks

Last month it was revealed that Johnny would be selling the pub as ITV announced a new Product Placement partnership with Purplebricks as The Rovers Return goes on the market.

Speaking about the storyline and the product placement, Iain MacLeod said: “The upcoming story around the sale of the Rovers Return stems from something exciting that happens between Jenny and Johnny.

“But it also led to an exciting opportunity to team up with Purplebricks to sell the nation’s most iconic pub.

“The presence of a real Purplebricks sign outside adds a little bit of realism to a really relatable story between two of our best-loved characters.”
