Corrie spoilers see Dee-Dee mortified after date blunder with cobbles newcomer

Coronation Street fans will be left delighted for cobbles favourite Dee-Dee Bailey next week as new duty solicitor Joel Deering, played by Hollyoaks star Calum Lill, asks her out on a date.

In upcoming scenes, Joel invites Dee-Dee out for a drink, explaining that he needs to pick her brain about US law. Dee-Dee is left chuffed as she gets her books out but things soon turn awkward when a disappointed Joel realises that Dee-Dee doesn't see it as a date.

Later, Joel admits US law was just an excuse to ask her out and suggests they have dinner to which Dee-Dee is left delighted. However, things soon go from bad to worse when Dee-Dee admits she's busy for the next few nights to which a disappointed Joel hurries out, leaving Dee-Dee kicking herself.

However, it's not long until co-worker, Adam Barlow, plays Cupid after he learns that Dee-Dee turned down a date with Joel in order to spend the evening with him. A mischievous Adam then engineers a plan to get them together...

It comes amid a slew of new characters on the hit ITV soap with fellow Hollyoaks star, Stephanie Davis, who played Sinead O'Connor on the Channel 4 soap, recently joining the cobbles as Courtney Vance. Viewers will recall that Courtney made her cobbles debut in July, alongside husband Darren Vance, and Courtney soon found herself caught up in a steamy affair with Aadi Alahan.

Elsewhere, Coronation Street is set for a new arrival on the cobbles in coming weeks as Hollyoaks icon Nicole Barber-Lane has announced she'll be joining the hit ITV soap.

Taking to Instagram, Nicole, 53, who played Myra McQueen from 2006 to 2019 on the Channel 4 soap, confirmed her upcoming cameo. The soap star first shared a teaser video, captioned: "Yes! Guess where I've been filming" with a camera emoji. Nicole then posted a slew of behind-the-scenes snaps on the cobbles, writing: "So if you guessed @coronationstreet you were right! Such a pleasure to do a little cameo.....look out for Ange in last week in September......"

According to Digital Spy, Ange is the boss of a cab firm who wants to use Webster's Autocentre and make the most of the garage. Ange is believed to appear in a three-episode arc for the "time being".
