Great move!

Excited for Kate's tenure. First credited episode Monday, by the Autumn we'll be seeing a major improvement - already evident on screen and will only improve.

Great news, Peter was great and Chris is a great actor, will be good that Carla is gone as well.

Glad to see Peter will be back, I just hope they finally move his character on from the repetitive cheating storylines.

Smart move by Oates. Barlows need building up and it'll give Ken something else to do then berate Tracy.

Very similar to bringing the Sugden's back to being the main family in Emmerdale. Great move

I think the Barlows needed a shake up but not excited by Peter. I have no doubt in my mind that we will have the love triangle with him, Nick and Leanne for the 100th time and him falling of the wagon. If things have changed fine but wouldn't bet on it

Looking forward to this. So fed up with Tracy and Amy so will be good to see Ken's other children and grandson returning. I hope Peter reconciles with Leanne now that Carla is out of the picture, and they move him forward rather than boring affair storylines.

EDIT

Great minds think alike.

Gascoyne was always enthusiastic about a return to Corrie so I'm not surprised about Peter. I think he only left as he was genuinely exhausted with the repetitive material he had to play before. Without Carla, Peter can hopefully move in a new direction.

Adam was a failure in previous incarnations. At least they're going for a recast and not opting to bring back Sam Robertson, who was bad in this and River City.

Peter's return is the best soap news I've had all year. Excellent character and a very charismatic actor.

This is positive news but the two I really wish they could bring back, sadly can't be brought back

Peter!!!!!!! I was expecting this but I am still pleased by it.

Tbh I thought they might reintroduce either Adam or Daniel but am pretty surprised that both will be back. It is good news imo and is good news for the Barlows, Kate's first big decision on the show has been a good one and coupled with the better quality of episodes since Kylie's death I am cautiously optimistic for the future.

I wonder who will play Adam and Daniel and how they will be reintroduced.

Glad to see Peter back, it will be interesting to see how he reacts to his BFF being the baby daddy of his ex-wife

Great that Peter is coming back, I always liked him and I'm happy Chris Gascoyne is playing him again, I couldn't imagine any other bloke in the role tbh!

Maybe I'll carry on watching now he's coming back. I was gonna give the show up after my favourite ever soap character Kylie was killed off cos the show doesn't feel the same without her anymore and everyone will just forget her soon but Peter was my favourite male character so this is good news

Sounds great (although im not to optimistic about the revealed Maria plot) hopefully things will begin to look up.

Seriously she's a fictional character and you really need to get over it. The actress wanted to leave, they did a dramatic plot which has enhanced character based drama for a few weeks, she's hardly dead in real life you sound completley deranged ahaha

I did like the Adam Barlow scenes with Sarah back in early 2005, I remember them being close and I personally thought back then they would've eventually become a couple.

Not at all surprised about Peter's return; he has had more comebacks than Cher.

I do like the character though.

Adam will probably have a go on either Eva or Dreary Maria, at some point.

I agree. There are such horrifying things happening in the real world that going into decline following the death of a fictitious character is slightly ridiculous.

Maybe Kate Oates is going to pull a Robert with him and have him be gay and have an affair with Todd #Todam

Delighted by this news. I've been calling for a big Barlow reunion for as long as I can remember. In fact I only recently posted about it - now if only they could heed my other suggestion of Stephanie Beacham's Martha making a comeback!

I do hope they at least invite Sam Robertson for an audition, similar to how Dawn Acton auditioned but lost out to Kate Ford to win back the role of Tracy. He's massively improved and impressed in other roles since, plus he's majorly hot, so that's a factor 😉
