Episode Details

Claire Sweeney bids farewell to Coronation Street after three unforgettable years as Cassandra Plummer, her final scenes airing last night — and yes, those tears were real. She’s stepping away to chase a lifelong dream: playing Miss Hannigan in the musical Annie, hitting the Liverpool Empire stage from September 22nd to 26th. In a heartfelt Instagram post, Claire thanked her castmates, crew, and the show itself — especially Dame Maureen Lipman and the on-screen family she formed — recalling iconic moments like poisoning a character. The emotional send-off on set, complete with flowers and a surprise presentation, left her moved. Fans and co-stars are already mourning her departure while eagerly anticipating her big musical debut — a role she’s dreamed of since childhood, blending comedy, tragedy, and unforgettable tunes.
