Weatherfield troublemaker Cassie Plummer is turning her attention from ex-boss Kevin Webster to soap icon Ken Barlow as she lands a new job – as his carer!
“I was very ensconced in the Dobbs’ house with Maureen Lipman and Alan Halsall and then suddenly I heard whispers that I had a storyline with Bill,” she says. “My first day of filming, I just said to him, ‘Look, I’m nervous,’ and he was so kind and warm. I feel so honoured – I’ve only been here a year and I’m so lucky to have this storyline.”
The job is a welcome break for Cassie, who was fired from the garage for mocking Kev’s wife Abi Franklin after deep-fake porn videos appeared of her online. “She feels disappointed with her personal life,” Claire says. “That is the reason for her being mean to Abi, it’s just jealousy. She’s not necessarily into Kevin, but she just wants that security of being loved.”
She adds, “I don’t know if it will go anywhere at the moment but I’m enjoying working with Simon. He makes me belly laugh on a daily basis.” Like the rest of the cast, Claire was rocked by the news that Helen Worth – who has played Gail Platt for 50 years – is leaving the soap. “What a legend! She is Corrie and it’s going to be such a loss,” Claire sighs. “It was obviously what she wanted and good luck to her. It was out of the blue – well for me anyway. I’m sure she’ll have a fabulous storyline before she goes.”
