The ITV soap has tempted scene-stealer Amy Robbins to reprise her role as Christina Boyd for a major new storyline.

Actress Amy made her apparently final exit as the nightmare mother of former Rovers barmaid Daisy Midgeley earlier this year as part of Daisy’s exit storyline.
But now The Sun can exclusively reveal that Amy is back playing Christina once again – and she’ll be back on screen soon.
A source said: “Amy is back and has returned to filming.
“Obviously with Charlotte leaving it would have been easy to think you’d never see her again but the character is so juicy that everyone jumped at the chance to have her back.
“Christina will be back to her usual tricks causing chaos on the cobbles.
“There’s going to be some incredible scenes with her and Jenny clashing.
“And this time she’s back for a long stint. She returned to filming recently and she’ll be back on screen later this summer.
“It’s definitely going to be explosive.”
Christina was last seen on the cobbles in May when her daughter Daisy got the better of her and took Jenny Connor’s money for herself.
While Daisy is now living the life of riley abroad on the cash, Christina was left penniless after trying to double-cross her daughter.

And she’ll be back in Weatherfield to come face to face with Jenny once more.
But who will come out on top between the battle of the Rovers icons?
