Coronation Street star Martin Hancock has teased a dark new story for Spider Nugent, revealing that he will be haunted by ‘demons’ from his past.

The actor, who staged a comeback to the ITV soap last year, spoke to Metro.co.uk at the red carpet about the upcoming storyline, revealing what’s ahead for his character.

‘I can’t reveal too much’, he said, ‘But let’s just say that there are some demons from the past coming!’.

Consider us very intrigued.

Spider, as viewers know, was involved in a huge storyline over the past year that saw Max Turner targeted by a group of far-right extremists led by villainous Griff.

Discussing his character’s involvement in that storyline, Martin told us: ‘I think soaps have always had the ability to address really really difficult issues that you wouldn’t be able to, or that people wouldn’t be open to.

‘So we’re allowed to bring in these changes in society, develop them and show them and maybe even come up with solutions for them as well.

‘That’s where soaps are very good.’

Spider, meanwhile, has also reconnected with former flame Toyah Battersby since returning to the eponymous street, and Martin couldn’t be happier about working alongside actress Georgia Taylor once more.

‘Working with Georgia is a dream!,’ he enthused.

‘I’ve never made any bones about it, she’s one of the best people I’ve ever worked with and I love her to bits.

‘It helps when you work with someone who you really respect.’

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
