Coronation Street star Michael Le Vell has claimed that he will quit the show if his character's infidelity storyline does not end.
The actor told The Sun that his alter ego Kevin Webster must ditch his affair with Molly Dobbs (Vicky Binns) when he learns that his wife Sally (Sally Whittaker) has breast cancer later this year.
Le Vell announced: "If Sally's cancer doesn't end the affair and Kevin's got no remorse towards her then I'm leaving because I can't be putting up with it.
"If he carries on with Molly he doesn't deserve to be in the family unit, it's as simple as that."
He added: "I hope Kevin gives all of his backing to Sally because if he doesn't he's a bigger b**tard than I thought he was."
The 44-year-old has previously revealed that producers want the plotline to run for "12 to 15 months" and feature many "twists".
Sally's cancer storyline has been billed as a life-changing moment for Kevin. Upon hearing the news, he must decide whether to fully support his family or continue seeing shop worker Molly, who is cheating on her own partner Tyrone (Alan Halsall).
Viewers will see Sally receiving her tragic news in December.
