Corrie’s iconic pub facing unthinkable makeover

Viewers should be very worried about the Rovers if rumours are to be believed

Coronation Street’s Rovers Return could be about to have a complete makeover.

The beloved pub might be about to change hands from Peter Barlow and Toyah Battersby with Henry Newton making a return to bid for the boozer.

Brewery heir Henry was last seen on the street being sent off with a flee in his ear after taking part in a cruel bet to date Gemma Winter.

However, viewers watched as Henry secretly fell for Gemma, but she didn’t believe him and packed him off, devastated.

Now it seems he will stop at nothing to win her back, including buying the Rovers for her to shape as she will.

And Gemma plans to turn the classic watering hole into a chic cocktail bar.

A source told the Mirror how Henry will hit on his ultimate plan to woo Gemma back.

“As part of the relationship he tries to woo her by saying he will buy the pub and she can go from working in the kebab shop to landlady of the Rovers.

“Gemma is very excited and when Henry says he wants the pub to be more sophisticated she even starts planning a cocktail menu.

“But the plans won’t go down with regulars and if it goes ahead there would be an outcry on the Street as most people go in there for a quiet pint not a pina colada.”

However, the newspaper does claim that the sale has yet to go through, meaning bosses could still change their mind.

It was recently revealed how Peter Barlow will quit as landlord after discovering girlfriend’s Torah Battersby’s lies about their baby.

The couple are currently raising baby Susie together, with Peter thinking their surrogate gave birth.

Instead the surrogate tragically lost the baby she was carrying and Toyah arranged to take on Eva Price’s secret baby from her relationship with Aidan Connor.

And now it seems the Rovers will be another victim of Toyah and Eva’s scheme.
