'Coronation Street' Sally Dynevor "shocked" by Frank plot

Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor has admitted that she was "shocked" when she first heard that her character Sally Webster would embark on a relationship with evil Frank Foster.

Sally was left stunned as Frank made a move on her in last night's double bill of the soap, but fans will see her make a surprising decision later this week as she responds to his advances.

Although Carla Connor (Alison King) has publicly accused Frank (Andrew Lancel) of rape after his attack on her, Sally has wrongly believed him to be innocent for some time.

Dynevor told itv.com of the storyline: "I think the viewers are going to be very worried about Sally. I thought and the viewers thought that I was getting back with Kevin! So I think we'll all be a bit shocked with this storyline, actually. I was certainly shocked by it, but I'm really, really loving it - it's great."

The actress predicted that Kevin's (Michael Le Vell) reaction to Sally's new romance is likely to reignite the war of the Websters.

"Kevin is going to be livid," Dynevor confirmed. "I can't wait to see that first punch that Kevin gives Frank. He's not going to be happy about it, because he's been waiting in the wings now for quite a while.

"It's going to be a very explosive New Year for the Websters - yet again!"

Coronation Street continues on Thursday night at 8.30pm on ITV1.
