Coronation Street's Peter Barlow returns

Ken Barlow's love-rat son needs help caring for 'secret' child

Peter Barlow is played by Chris Gascoyne

Peter Barlow is set to return to Coronation Street – with a son in tow.

The character – played by Chris Gascoyne, 40 – fled Weatherfield after it was revealed he was a bigamist.

But he comes back to ask for his father's help after estranged wife Lucy (Katy Carmichael) dies, leaving him to care for their 5-year-old boy.

‘He's stunned by his son’s arrival,’ a source tells The Sun. ‘He doesn’t know the first thing about kids.’
