Craig Tinker Axed in Coronation Street Shake-Up
Colson Smith, who has portrayed Craig Tinker on Coronation Street since 2011, will be killed off in a dramatic storyline this summer after being axed from the show. Sources reveal that the decision to end PC Tinker's character was tough, given his long-standing role in the soap, but it is expected to be a heroic and emotional exit. Fans have expressed outrage over the decision, with many lamenting the ongoing trend of character eliminations in the show. Smith himself has taken the news positively, seeing it as an opportunity for new beginnings beyond Coronation Street. He shared his experiences and emotions regarding the decision on his podcast, reflecting on the bittersweet nature of leaving the role after 14 years. Colson is set to film his final scenes later this month, and his departure will air in the summer, leaving a significant impact on the show's narrative.
