And to commemorate his final day on set, Colson clambered up onto the Rovers Return set for a final picture.

However he revealed a little bit more than intended as the side of the picture shows a partial for sale sign on the beloved boozer.

The soap is currently filming around ten weeks ahead of broadcast, meaning this is a major spoiler.

This means the Rovers will be put up for sale by current landlady Jenny Connor.

Viewers know that Jenny technically owns the pub having bought it back from the brewery with stepdaughter Carla Connor’s stolen money.

Her theft was exposed and she has been paying Carla back slowly but surely.

But with Carla having to spend thousands on a private operation to save her life and get her brother Rob’s spare kidney, Carla wants her money back.

And now it looks like she will force Jenny to sell-up and there will be a new pub landlady coming to Weatherfield.

Coronation Street’s Jenny Connor makes dangerous decision about the Rovers Return,

Coronation Street’s 2024 shock exits

Corrie has said goodbye to several cast members this year. Let’s break down who’s left the famous soap:

Eliza Woodrow (Savannah Kunyo) has said farewell to Corrie to start a new life in Germany.

The youngster moved to live with her dad Dom Everett, who went back on the £10,000 bribe Eliza’s grandfather Stu had offered to keep him out of her life.

Paul Foreman (Peter Ash) will bow out of the soap this summer when he loses his fight with motor neurone disease (MND) in tragic scenes.

After being diagnosed last year, the fan favourite was devastated to learn he only had months left to live.

Viewers know he is planning to take his own life to end his suffering.

Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) departed the cobbles after being offered the opportunity of a lifetime to study in America.

Though she struggled to decide with her stepdad Paul’s impending death from MND, she was convinced she had to live her life to the full.

Simon Barlow (Alex Bain) has struggled with the sudden departure of his father Peter from the cobbles.

The Weatherfield legend left his family and loved ones behind on Boxing Day, 2023, when his wife Carla Connor encouraged him to travel around the world with a friend.

Simon’s been on a downward spiral ever since and his exit could end in tragedy.

Alya Nazir is set to leave the cobbles as actress Sair Khan prepares to go on maternity leave ahead of the birth of her first child.

It looks likely she’ll be heading to Dublin after securing a lucrative new job, leaving her colleague and fling Adam Barlow behind.

Show stalwart Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw, is taking a break to star in the Sister Act The Musical UK tour. She will be back filming in May once her dates on the tour come to an end.

Her character left the Street after her son Jason broke his back after falling off a moped in Asia.

“After a brilliant four years for Daisy, it’s time for me to start a new chapter and explore other opportunities.”

Will she force Jenny to sell-up?
