Former Coronation Street star reveals huge role on rival soap as they share gruesome pictures just six months after leaving the cobbles
Former Coronation Street star Bill Fellows has revealed that he has landed a huge role on a rival soap just six months after he left the cobbles. The soap actor, 68, played the role of Stu Carpenter on the ITV1 series since October 2021. And now he has landed a role in Casualty and has already started filming scenes for the popular-medical show. Taking to Instagram, Bill shared a sneak peek of the upcoming scenes as he shared a picture of himself covered in fake blood. The actor also shared a behind-the-scenes photo of himself getting into character, complete with an NHS staff pass hanging proudly around his neck. It's currently unclear as to who Bill will play but his snaps suggest that he will be involved in a gruesome incident. And now he has landed a role in casualty and has already started filming scenes for the popular-medical show as he took to Instagram to share some gruesome pictures During his exit from the show, he insisted that has 'no regrets at all' over leaving after a dramatic stint on the show. While he hasn't 'ruled out' the idea of a comeback at some point, he thinks that his character has 'evolved' since he joined as a homeless man, who had been wrongly imprisoned for murder in the years before his arrival. He said: 'I have no regrets at all. It is the right time to go for me and for Stu. I will look back with fond memories and I wouldn't rule out coming back in the future. 'But Stu has evolved, we started off with a homeless guy who was wrongly accused of murder and then we get to the point three years later where this guy's got almost a quarter of a million pounds and has cleared his name and made it a life for himself. 'I'm really pleased with the story, because it's been fully, fully formed.' During his time on the show, Stu has worked as a chef at Speed Daal and also struck up a relationship with his boss Yasmeen Nazir (Shelley King). Having realised that his quest to try and mentor troubled teen Mason Radcliffe (Luca Toolan) has put Yasmeen and her business at risk, Stu tells her he has decided to go and live permanently with his granddaughter in Germany. Away from Coronation Street, Bill is best known for his role as George Catrick in the hit Apple+ series Ted Lasso. But he has been a regular face on British television since the 1980s with appearances in dramas such as Byker Grove, Heartbeat and Casualty over the years. From 1997 until 1998, he had a main role in the Sky One series Dream Team, which also featured his future Corrie co-star Alison King, who has now played Carla Connor for nearly 20 years. Bill had previously auditioned for the role of Richard Lucas, who is the long-lost brother of café owner Roy Cropper (David Neilson), but the part eventually went to Paul Brown. He said: 'I had yes [thought about doing a soap before], in fact, I auditioned for the role of Roy's brother, Nina's dad before I got the role of Stu. 'I wasn't right for the part but it was for three weeks so it was fate really because I got this part and stayed three years. I am so proud to have been in Corrie. 'It is a massive part of all our lives, especially at my age, 67, it has been around all my life.' Speaking about what he has got planned now he's finished working on the soap he said: 'I am fortunate in that I have a busy few months coming up. I am doing a couple of Episodes of a BBC sitcom based in Middlesbrough called Smoggie Queens with Mark Benton. 'And then I am working on a film with Mark again and Stephen Tompkinson about low level gangsters in Middlesbrough. 'It is kind of ironic that I am hedging back to the North East to work as it is even further from my home down south than Corrie is! 'But it is my hometown and I know a lot of people there so I am very much looking forward to that. 'There is a Vampire film in the pipeline which is looking promising. I want to keep working on varied projects and I also want to travel a bit, I am quite laid back but excited about the future. Coronation Street is on ITV at 8pm Monday, Wednesday and Friday and available to stream from 7am on ITVX.
