Coronation Street fans have come up with a new storyline for George and Glenda Shuttleworth – and it sees them owning the Rovers Return.
Corrie fans will remember that George and Glenda had a battle over their late dad Archie’s will last year, with George having hid Glenda’s inheritance from her.
George eventually agreed to let his sister have his house to stop her taking half his funeral business. But fans have now pointed out that Glenda doesn’t actually live in said house, so have suggested she sell it in order to buy the pub.

Coronation Street fans plot for Glenda to be landlady
After Jenny and Daisy sold the pub, Carla became the new owner, with Glenda taking on the role of bar manager. But a dedicated fan has come up with a way that Glenda could be more than just the manager – and we love it!
Taking to Reddit, one fan wrote a lengthy post about Glenda and George’s forgotten house. They said: “Why couldn’t they have written a storyline where Glenda sells that mahoosive house neither she nor her brother live in and use the money from that to buy the Rovers? [short answer: it’s too logical]
“I don’t know why I’ve only just thought of this now but it is a totally believable way that Glenda could get the money to buy the Rovers. And it gets rid of the plot hole of ‘who even lives in that house anyway?’
“I’m sure she’d give some of the money from the sale to George (even if he did technically give the house to her) but surely even after that she’d be able to afford putting in a good offer on the Rovers. And I think George would take a lesser cut if it helped her out in doing so too.”
Another user jokingly replied: “No way, that would never happen. Where’s the depression and misery in it?”
