Sian's father cast in 'Coronation Street'

Published Tuesday, Apr 14 2009, 16:42 BST | By Kris Green | 2 comments
News has just reached my inbox that the father of Sian Powers (Sacha Parkinson) has been cast in Coronation Street.

Actor Ian Dunn is to take on the role of Vinnie Powers and begins filming at Manchester's Granada Studios within the next few weeks.

Vinnie will make his first screen appearance on Friday, May 29.

What with the recent rumours that angelic churchgoer Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent) strikes up a lesbian relationship with her best friend Sian, I'm thinking that Vinnie will have a lot to say.

But first, the protective father has to contend with Sian's relationship with Ryan Connor (Ben Thompson)...

His previous acting credits include Holby City, Waking The Dead, EastEnders and London's Burning.
