Read no further if you don't want to know
but, as we did with the Tram Crash two years ago, there is a storyline that's just broken on our screens that is big. Very big. And because it's going to be difficult to avoid and because there could be some media coverage, we're going to break our no-spoiler rule.
The actress that plays Hayley Cropper, Julie Hesmondhalgh is leaving Coronation Street. She wants to do other things so it's her choice to leave. When I first heard this spoiler several months ago, I feared the worst. How could Hayley leave Roy? That would never happen unless she died. Sadly, that's what's happening. We now know that Hayley has been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and she's been told it has a low survival rate.
This form of cancer is very aggressive and it's going to be very difficult for most of us to watch her journey. We wish Julie all the best and we know that these are the best actors to bring us this storyline. They are some of the best actors on Corrie and no doubt the writing and story will be handled sensitively but with a little gentle humour now and then as Corrie often does.

Thanks for putting the spoiler alert up. I don't like spoilers at all. I knew Haley was leaving for a long time - and now I'm expecting these next few episodes are going to be very difficult.
As you know we don't usually do spoilers but sometimes one is just too big to keep under wraps. This will play out over a few months as the actress won't be leaving immediately.
