Coronation Street star Ian Puleston-Davies is returning to the soap opera more than a decade after he left.<\/b><\/p>\n
The 67-year-old will reprise his role as Owen Armstrong almost 11 years after the character left Weatherfield, following the collapse of his business and breakdown of his relationship with Anna Windass.<\/p>\n
The no-nonsense builder’s return will see him move in with daughter Izzy and grandson Jake, and making it clear he blames Anna Windass’ son, Gary Windass, for his family’s misfortune.<\/p>\n
Puleston-Davies, from Flint, in Flintshire, said: “I can’t wait to pick up where I left off 10 years ago.<\/p>\n
“It’s brilliant to be back and to get stuck into a cracking storyline. Owen’s back and he’s still angry.”<\/p>\n
Puleston-Davies will start filming Owen’s return next week and will be back on screen on the cobbles in January.<\/p>\n
Since leaving Coronation Street, Puleston-Davies has starred in dramas Pennyworth, Tin Star and After The Flood.<\/p>\n
Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks said she was “thrilled” Puleston-Davies was back.<\/p>\n
“He wreaks havoc on the street, and his relationship with Gary is severely put to the test,” she said.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
