Coronation Street star Alison King has admitted that she can understand why her character Carla is attracted to binman Trevor Dean.
Weatherfield newcomer Trevor, played by actor Steve Jackson, has become Kings's latest love interest after joining the soap earlier this year.
In an interview with This Morning, King argued that Trevor is "gorgeous" and that Carla deserves a hassle-free romance following her previous troubles.
The actress explained: "It's anybody's guess how long it will last, but he's a good-looking guy, a nice guy and he's uncomplicated - which, let's face it, after everything's she's been through is kind of what she needs.
"How long that will last, who knows, and also she might try and spruce him up or something. He'd look pretty good in a tux, I think!"
She added: "I think for the side of her that loves drama, she's now got Nick Tilsley, who's her sparring partner."
