Coronation Street drug boss Harvey Gaskell returns in handcuffs in new scenes spelling disaster for Leanne Battersby
CORONATION Street drug boss Harvey Gaskell returns to our screens soon, causing more trouble for Leanne and Simon.
Harvey - played by Will Mellor - was jailed after Leanne and aunt Sharon's witness statements and grooming kids to sell drugs and nearly shooting Sam to scare and threaten the family.
He also set up a kidnapping of Nick's son Sam to threaten Leanne and Simon with what could happen to their family if they went ahead with their witness statements.
Leanne feared for her and Simon's life after Harvey found out they were working with the police to take him down.
They went into hiding and Nick joined them, but they soon returned to the cobbles for the trial.
After the trail, viewers were left open-mouthed as Sharon took over the drug business after leaving her nephew Harvey in jail.
But, there will be a return for Harvey on the cobbles as he deals with his unfinished business with Leanne, Simon and Sharon.
Actor Will was spotted on set in handcuffs filming new scenes.
He sported a charcoal grey sweatshirt and joggers with a bandage on his hand.
Fans have long speculated that the character would be back for revenge after he wasn't actually shown getting sentenced for his crimes on screen.
Will previously told The Sun on Sunday that he'd been left horrified after viewers asked him to sell hardcore drugs to them after seeing his character on screen.
He shared: "It was funny. I went to the local pub and someone said to me, ‘Have you got owt? Have you got owt, Harvey?’ and I was like, ‘What are you talking about?’.

“I’ve also had a few women who’ve said, ‘I hope you’re not selling drugs around here’. I’m like, ‘Stop saying that, people will overhear’.”
The actor has also suffered abuse in the street for his alter ego's villainous behaviour, with strangers shouting at him to "leave Simon alone" - unable to separate him from nasty Harvey.
Will Harvey get is revenge on Leanne and Sharon after their revealing witness statements?
Coronation Street airs at 7:30pm on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays on ITV.
