Lovely looking girl and I just hope she doesn't hopelessly overact the way I felt all the cast of Citizen Khan did. Tbf, CK was written that way, so she may be fine in Corrie.

As long as she distracts Zeedan from getting up close and personal with Leanne that has to be a good thing.

This character could've had potential, as a young person that could bring some more life to the street (Aiden and Kate have failed at that), but they've sent her the same way as all the other characters. Job on demand, and romance with a random character before the viewers have even had a chance to get to know them.

Can't wait! She's great as Alia in Citizen Khan and obviously beautiful so she'll be perfect for Corrie.

I really thought they were going to have Zeedan develop a thing for Leanne. At least they're finally giving him something to do, I guess.

I think there's still some room for that...I wouldnt be surprised if they have a sneaky kiss sometime soon.

Who would be able to resist Leanne though? I wouldn't.

I value my sanity too much so I would be able to resist.

Precisely what I thought JB.

Just another Corrie cardboard cutout of a character is glamorous, feisty and perpetually horny.

Seriously, when will they think of something different for a character under 30?

It does sound remarkably like the spiel that was attached to both Alya & Kate when they were first announced!!
Pretty enough lass but we aren't exactly short of young glamorous 20-35 'hotties' on the show, do we really need another!! In fact do we need yet more new characters at all tbh?

How do you know? Have you seen a trailer that I've missed?
Or are you just prejudging the character, over a month before she even appears on screen, as Corrie watchers are so prone to do these days?

I'd rather have Leanne off Hollyoaks return.

I agree we are becoming a cynical lot

Trouble is it comes from 3 years of being promised great storylines & exciting new characters that, when transferred onto our screens have almost invariably ended up as a massive disappointment!!

Alya is in dire need of a friend, and this could be just the trick for her character.

This is what the show needs, more new characters that do nothing.

Hmmm, those looks she gave Andy.

This Zidane love interest might just be a red herring. She'd probably break up Steph and Andy's relationship.
