Robert Beck is back on Coronation Street playing Tony Gordon’s (Gray O’Brien) henchman Jimmy Dockerson.
Digitalspy reports that Beck was seen filming this week with Alison King, who plays Gordon’s estranged wife Carla and who in real life has just returned from maternity leave.
39-year-old Beck is married to Jane Danson who plays Leanne Battersby on the soap. The couple celebrated the birth of their second child in February.
Beck’s character, Dockerson, was used by Gordon to kill Liam who had been having an affair with his wife. He was also involved in threatening pensioner Jed Stone who was thwarting one of Gordon’s property deals.
Digitalspy quotes a Coronation Street source as saying "With Carla back on the scene, Tony starts to panic as she's the only one who could expose his murderous ways."
