Coronation Street’s Peter Barlow films underwhelming soap exit on a tram after 23 years
Photos from the Coronation Street set have suggested that Peter Barlow's exit may not be quite as dramatic as viewers have been predicting. One photo sees actor Chris Gascoyne, who has played the role since 2000, sat on a tram with a backpack, suggesting that he may be making a rather low-profile exit from Weatherfield. It comes after the character was left riddled with guilt after he ran over serial killer Stephen Reid, and while fans had originally predicted that Peter may end up behind bars over Stephen's death, recent episodes saw him given the all clear by the police.
