Sair Khan warns Corrie viewers about heartbreaking scenes

OHMYGOSSIP — Sair Khan has warned ‘Coronation Street’ viewers about more “heartbreaking” scenes which have left the cast in tears
The 30-year-old soap star – who plays Alya Nazir on the cobbles – has admitted while new boss Iain MacLeod has promised more “comedy and character”, there are still some gloomy storylines in the pipeline.
Speaking to the Daily Star newspaper, she said: “We’ve just been reading the most heartbreaking ‘Coronation Street’ scripts.
“I’ve been weeping like a baby – a lot of us were. We will be wrecks by the end of it.”
The show’s direction under previous producer Kate Oates sparked controversy, with many longtime viewers hitting out at the darker storylines, including a serial killer, drug addiction, male rape and grooming.
When Iain took over the ITV soap, he said ‘Corrie’ was “at its best when it’s go comedy in it” to balance out the “key, heartbreaking poignant stuff”.
And now Sair – who recently appeared on ‘I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!’ – has admitted things might not be getting any easier for the soap’s fans in the future.
She added: “The viewers are in for one hell of a rollercoaster.”
Last year, it was revealed that ‘Corrie’ would manage to balance the light and dark with at least one future storyline, with Iain revealing that Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvaney) will get pregnant.
The cobbles boss suggested the story – which will see Steve (Simon Gregson) and Tracy McDonald (Kate Ford) trying to cope with the surprise news – could have a ‘Family Guy’ twist.
He added: “It’s also really funny. Steve and Tracy dealing with a teenage pregnancy is not like a normal couple dealing with a teen pregnancy!
“There are scenes reminiscent of Peter Griffin in ‘Family Guy’ – Steve goes fully postal at certain times. It’s very funny, classic Steve with that ‘Corrie’ heart. It’s heartbreaking but ridiculous at the same time.”
