Owen Armstrong to return to Coronation Street in January 2027

Owen Armstrong is returning to Coronation Street in scenes set to air in January 2027.

Played by Ian Puleston-Davies, Owen left Weatherfield in 2015 after his relationship with Anna Windass ended and his business collapsed.

He is coming back to live with his daughter Izzy and grandson Jake.

Owen blames Gary Windass for his family's misfortune, setting up a conflict between the two men.

Gary has been sentenced to eight months in prison after helping Sarah Platt cover up Theo Silverton's death.

Owen's return could put Gary's builder's yard at risk, though the show's next developments have not been confirmed.

The producer says Owen will join an unlikely alliance and that his relationship with Gary will be tested.
