Corries Tina McIntyre set to return from dead in major coup for soap, says AI

Michelle Keegan could be returning to Coronation Street – despite her character getting killed off nearly ten years ago, according to AI.

The TV fave, 36, shot to fame playing barmaid beauty Tina McIntyre in the long-running ITV soap back in 2008.

But in 2014, and after half a decade on the famous cobbles, Tina was killed off when she was pushed off a balcony.

Despite managing to survive the fall, her character was beaten with a metal pole by Rob Donovan (Marc Baylis) – which resulted in her death.

Since her tragic exit, Michelle has kept herself busy – bagging roles in the likes of BBC smash hit Our Girl and Sky comedy series Brassic.

And apparently, Michelle could be heading back to Weatherfield in a ā€œmajor coupā€ for the long-running ITV soap.

With EastEndersā€™ Cindy Beale ā€˜returning from the deadā€™ in recent episodes over at the BBC, the same could also be said for Corrie favourite Tina.

Now, Daily Star has quizzed one of the worldā€™s most popular artificially intelligent ā€œcreativeā€ tools Bard AI, to see if Michelle could be back on the iconic northern soap.

ā€œMichelle has never ruled out a return to Coronation Street, and she has said that she would be open to the idea if the storyline was right,ā€ the system claimed.

The AI program then suggested a ā€œfewā€ reasons as to why Michelle, who married Mark Wright in 2015, could be back on telly screens.

ā€œFirst, she is still a popular and well-liked character. She was a fan favourite during her time on the show, and many people would be happy to see her return.

ā€œSecond, her return could be used to create new drama for the show. For example, she could come back to avenge the death of her character, Tina McIntyre.ā€

Bard AI went on: ā€œThird, her return could be used to boost ratings. Coronation Street has been struggling in the ratings in recent years, and a return by Michelle Keegan would be a major coup for the show.ā€

However, the system did note there are some reasons why Michelle might not be heading back to Corrie.

ā€œFirst, she is now a successful actress in her own right. She has starred in several major TV shows and films, and she is likely to be offered many more opportunities in the future,ā€ Bard AI said.

ā€œSecond, she may not be interested in returning to a soap opera. Soap operas are known for their long hours and demanding schedules, and Michelle Keegan may not be willing to commit to that kind of work.

ā€œThird, she may not be happy with the way her character was killed off. Tina McIntyre was killed off in a very dramatic and shocking way, and Michelle Keegan may not want to revisit that storyline.ā€
