Coronation Street introduced a new face during Wednesday night’s episode (July 8), but there’s a good chance viewers recognised the actor straight away.
As Cassie tried to put Steve’s rejection behind her with a trip to the Chariot Square Hotel bar, she found herself chatting up a stranger. It wasn’t long before she discovered the man was Ross, Tyrone’s biological father, played by familiar soap actor Ian Burfield.

Cassie flirts with Ross in Coronation Street
Cassie was left heartbroken earlier this week when Steve turned down her marriage proposal. Although he assured her he loved her, he explained that he didn’t believe they needed to get married to prove it.
Already devastated by the rejection, Cassie then had to deal with Tracy, who had overheard the awkward exchange and couldn’t resist making her feelings known.
Convinced her relationship with Steve had reached the end of the road, Cassie headed to the Chariot Square Hotel bar in tonight’s episode to drown her sorrows.
There, she spotted a stranger and wasted no time trying to flirt with him, completely misreading the situation. Ross rejected her advances before walking away, leaving Cassie Plummer staring at a piece of paper with his name written on it.
As soon as she realised the stranger was called Ross, everything clicked into place. She worked out that he was actually Tyrone’s biological father.
