His return has prompted me to write a blog post to remind ourselves about Ryan Connor. And so, here we go.
Ryan turned up in Coronation Street when the shiny-haired Connor clan hit the cobbles in 2006. The Connor clan included brothers Liam (now dead) and Paul (now dead) their sister Michelle and her son Ryan.
Mother and son lived happily together until Ryan started being stalked by a stranger. Anyway, the stranger stalker turned out to be a man called Nick Neeson who believed Ryan was his real son, and that the poor lad who was living in Nick Neeson's house and had been brought up as his son, Alex Neeson, was Michelle's real baby.
There'd been a baby mix-up at the hospital when Ryan and Alex were born and a DNA test confirmed this.
So, got that? Ryan is not Michelle's real son, Alex is.
Confused Ryan moved out of the flat with his mum and Alex moved in with his. Confused viewers tried to keep up with the plot as one dark-shiny-haired-son replaced another in Michelle's fickle affections.
And then Ryan left for University in Glasgow and hasn't been seen since. I don't know how much Irn Bru he's been drinking up there in that Scotland, but he's gone from this:

Ahh it's clear now - when Michelle gave birth - it was to twins! But she blacked out, and by the time she came round, the mix up had already taken place. Bet the new boy has a distinctly different accent too - thus proving it was twins-seperated-at-birth :)
Sol Heras looks too old to play Michelle's son. He's 25, playing a 20 year old. The actual ages don't matter but it's how they will look together on screen. We already see how it doesn't work with Ben Price and Helen Worth.
At least he got a bleedin' hair cut!!
Yes, Ben Price and Helen Worth definitely do not look anything like mother and son. Very much a complement to Helen Worth, who is older than Gail and easily old enough to be Ben Price's mother in real life, although poor Ben has not aged well.
SSSSHHHHHH! If you mention the tedious baby swap storyline, the producers might decide to bring it back. I thought we'd all agreed to never mention it ever again...
I'm sure the producers don't even remember the baby swap storyline, they certainly didn't know that Annie Walker didn't own the Rovers
And Helen Worth isn't all that much younger than Sue Nicholls who plays her on-screen Mum (Audrey Roberts)
The age difference between Gail and Audrey (screen names) is now so very little as Gail is looking older since her new look. Cannot stand her whispery little girl voice either.
What is happening to her?
