Todd Carty wants to join Rival Soap
Todd Carty who, as we all know used to play Mark Fowler in the Eastenders soap but left back in the year of 2003 (after spending 18 longs year in the square) with a storyline that said he was HIV positive.
Since then we have famously seen him appear in another soap – The Bill – and he also appeared on Dancing on Ice last year; how could we forget! No-one could forget those silly, absolutely hilarious performance stunts that he pulled off!
Here is a quote that Female First picked up on from something he said in the past about his actions on the Dancing on Ice stage,
“I’m an actor…so, of course I was performing. I wanted to bring fun and humour to the show – people can take these things too seriously. I thought from the start ‘lets take the Mickey out of it’, make it light-hearted. All the viewers just hope the contestants fall on their backsides. It’s entertainment, it isn’t the Olympics.”
Very well put, I must say.
But now the 46 year old star is thinking about joining in with Coronation Street, who are in fact Eastenders rival soap in the business and there is just one part he wouldn’t say no to, if Corrie offered him it – “Maybe some young cockney wide boy who comes up, you’ve had a few of them in the past – maybe a new generation of London lad comes in. Anyway, give them my number just in case.”
Well if Corrie does want Todd to join their stream of characters on the show, they’ll have to include this “London lad” in the selection and, well, like Tony said, they’ve got his number now so all they need to do to get in contact with him is call, and he’ll be at the set within minutes!
I actually think Todd would be good in corrie.
