Coronation Street spoilers follow.
Coronation Street cast member Sam Retford believes the introduction of his character Curtis Delamere's parents "would be really interesting".
Boyfriend to Emma Brooker (played by Alexandra Mardell), Curtis suffers from an incurable heart condition – even losing clumps of his hair as a symptom in next week's episodes – so the non-existent family support doesn't really chime well.
"To see him with his mum or his dad would be really interesting as we haven't seen much about his past or upbringing as yet," commented the soap star.

Retford also weighed in on Curtis and Emma potentially living happily ever after, saying: "I think they are very well suited to each other and I think they could definitely make the most of the time they have with each other, however long that may be."
Surely the most important question of them although, is he enjoying his time on the iconic cobbles of Weatherfield?
"Incredibly so, absolutely, it's been such a nice family to be a part of," he noted. "Everyone has made me feel really welcome and I've been able to just slot in, it's a great show to work on."

Retford's particularly fond of his regular co-star Mardell, who he described as a "fantastic actress" who "makes long days go really quickly" and "a great team partner".
Also in Corrie news, Millie Gibson recently called for a brighter future for her character Kelly Neelan following a horrendous run of events.
Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 7.30pm and 8.30pm.
