Coronation Street brings back Tyrone Dobbs’ young son Dorin next week.

Tyrone gets a surprise when his wife Fiz and ex-lover Alina Pop make plans for Dorin to stay in Weatherfield for a few weeks.

When Tyrone returns home one afternoon, he’s shocked to find Dorin there without any prior warning.

Fiz reveals that Alina’s house has been flooded, leaving her with lots of practical matters to sort out.

As Alina needs support, Fiz has arranged for her and Tyrone to look after Dorin in the meantime.

Tyrone is delighted by the news, and is determined to make the most of this unexpected family reunion.

Young actor Henry Meller, who played Dorin for a short stint last year, is reprising his role for this storyline.

Dorin’s previous scenes aired last August and September, as Tyrone was stunned to discover that he had a son he never knew existed.

Alina was pregnant with Dorin when she left Weatherfield in 2021.

Speaking about the storyline last year, Alan Halsall – who plays Tyrone – told us: “I can only imagine for Tyrone that’s a whole whirlwind of emotions there – not knowing about it, why has he missed that time? It’ll bring up a lot of emotions for him because his own childhood was so poor and now we’ve seen Cassie and that’s all just come back to light.

“Obviously knowing there’s nothing he can do [about the past], he wants to make a point from now to be the best person he can be in that child’s life.”

At the time, Alan added that Tyrone wouldn’t feel tempted by Alina again.

He said: “[Fiz has] nothing to worry about! I think Tyrone did learn his lessons and we saw that clearly when they got back together and they finally got married after breaking up so many times.

“There’s been plenty of occasions where Ty and Fiz have not been together but that’s bubbled on for 20 years.”

Coronation Street airs Dorin’s return on Wednesday, April 9 on ITV1 and ITVX.
