WILL Mellor has revealed his delight at making his Coronation Street comeback as villain Harvey Gaskel.
It's been a while since viewers of the ITV soap have seen the killer and drug boss on-screen as he's behind bars.
New pictures released by Corrie show scenes between Harvey and halfbrother Damon Hay played Ciaran Griffiths.
Speaking about being back on Corrie, Will, from Stockport, said: "Firstly, I'm glad to be back because I really enjoy playing this character.
"It's something that straight away when they asked me to play this part, I knew what I wanted to do with it. I wanted to play him very real, a proper baddie, I thought if I'm ever going to be in Coronation Street I'm glad I'm playing a baddie because it's a part I don't get to play a lot.
