Posted April 1, 200916 yr http://cobblycobbles.co.uk/manchester.bugle/news Exclusive ROBBIE WILLIAMS TO WOO DEIRDRE BARLOW Ex-Take That hearthrob Robbie Williams is being sensationally lined up to make a guest appearance on Coronation Street as Deirdre Barlow's new love interest. Producers hope this coup will provide a massive ratings boost for the ailing soap and on a serious note send out a message to viewers the importance of giving up the fags. An insider told the Bugle ' Robbie is hugely popular with the over 50s who are Coronation Street's core audience. The UK's grannies love Angels.' Although the upcoming plot is a closely guarded secret, it is rumoured that Robbie will play a washing machine repair man called Ernest Shuttleworth who takes a shine to Deirdre after being called out to repair her twin tub. http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j317/sparkle41/washertyme.gif http://shinymedia.headshift.com/images/images/deirdre_with_fag.jpghttp://www.ananova.com/images/web/64178.jpg Ivor Halfload from Men & Motors Magazine writes: "A truely amazing opportunity to see these talented two people work together". Edith Degrees from The Over 55's Knitting Society writes: "I can't wait to see Robbie get out of his workmens overalls". Ben Dover from D.I.Y. Express writes: "Washing machine repairs will never be the same again". Betsy Hotwash from Womans Weekly writes: "My life is going to be complete". Edited April 1, 200916 yr by Sparkle

CHEEK!!!! we are much younger than that!!! Can't believe he has agreed to this - although I suppose he has been in Eastenders, and Peter Kay was quite funny when he was in Corrie Street . The Gallaghers are going to have a field day!!!!
