Overview
- Sweeney confirmed on Ireland AM that she has finished filming her final Coronation Street scenes and will leave the soap to play Miss Hannigan on the Annie tour.
- She described her on-screen departure as "explosive" and said her last day of filming was emotional as she said goodbye to cast and crew.
- Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks has said Tyrone’s father will appear on the show and that his arrival will create family friction that contributes to Cassie Plummer’s exit.
- Sweeney highlighted memorable moments from her three-year run, including storylines about drug addiction, family revelations, and a plot involving Ken Barlow.
- The exit has already been filmed and will air in coming weeks, and viewers should expect a dramatic storyline that closes Cassie’s arc while Sweeney moves to the scheduled July theatre role.
