He won't go to Corrie, because SB is in charge(or will be), I doubt Tom Lister is his biggest fan at the moment

Whilst I think Tom's a great actor, and would love to see him back on the box every night, he wouldn't be playing the fantastic character that is Carl King

Too soon. He was an integral part of Emmerdale. No other soap would touch him for many many years.

Maybe he was offered other ITV dramas ? That's usually the way with departing soap actors.

Not to be nasty as I do think ED has just as many talented ex cast members but usually only EE and Corrie stars get those kinda deals.

The thing is by going straight to another soap you can create a problem of the viewers only seeing him as Carl King and not the new character he's supposed to be playing!

And people still see Stella as Cindy Beale with a dodgy accent and that's ten years ago or so.

They should commission a British version of Dexter and ask him to play the lead role.

I'll watch anything he's in. I'd like a camera on him at all times showing on my tv, but I think that's illegal. Better still I'd like him actually in my house 24/7 he's one beautiful man!

Dont know who he is, but i assume he is from emmerdale, judging by the threads on the first page lol.
but ive never seen him act or anything so if he did come to ee it would be as if he is a new person i guess.

For you maybe. But soaps have massive audience crossover. No soap would pick up Tom Lister so soon after his demise in Emmerdale.

No chance he'll be seen in Corrie or any other soap; he'll be too busy doing Shakespeare for the next few years.

Tom is a brilliant actor - I'm sure there's a part for him in Downton Abbey if he wants it.

Or a film...

He can play Billy Walker's son in Coronation Street.

His next job is in pantomime and I hear he tweeted that he's doing a film next year, (I think he said filming in Eastern Europe iirc).

I think emmerdale needs to have a think about his plot lines and bring him back somehow - wasn't dirty den killed off and brought back I'm EE? (I don't watch it)

I don't think they'll be able to do this some how although I would love it if they did.

The follow up programme showed a few minutes of what we can expect for the aftermath of Carl's demise.

One scene in an upcoming episode appeared to show Jimmy identifying Carl's body on a slab at a police station morgue

What a great idea.
Ok, we would still remember him as Carl King, but that's a plus point in his favour.......you remember the good ones!
I don't think it would cause a problem to have him in Corrie......I would def get used to him!

Phil needs help with his Manor in EE and anyway I think we need another Mitchell to, there is to many Brannings and others going on at the moment, so cue relative Tom Lister playing cousin Don Mitchell.

I'd love to see him back on TV any where really

Maybe that is why he was written out. Maybe SB is eyeing up the best talent to take with him. Nothing would suprise me about that man

Never know.

Corrie could do with a hot looking thirty something yr old male. They don't exactly have any good looking males, unless you like them brain dead like Jason and they didn't exactly hit gold with Carla's brother and the new Ryan
