Coronation Street: Bruno Langley returns to set

Coronation Street actor Bruno Langley appeared on set while filming forthcoming funeral scenes just days before he was hit with ‘inappropriate conduct’ accusations.

The 34-year-old actor looked melancholy as he filmed the scenes, set to air around Christmas, alongside long-time co-stars Sue Cleaver (Eileen Grimshaw), Sam Robertson (Adam Barlow) and Bill Roache (Ken Barlow).

On Friday, it a source told The Sun: ‘He is very upset. This is devastating for him. A complaint has been received and is being taken very seriously.’

The cast appeared sombre during the scenes, with Sue sporting a bandaged cut above her eye. This could be to do with her husband Pat Phelan (played by Connor Mcintyre) as he prepares to take a new prisoner.

Eileen has been suspicious of her husband in recent weeks, and it looks like Phelan may turn nasty as he buckles under the pressure. 

Shooting came shortly before Bruno discovered he is under investigation by ITV after a woman filed a formal complaint against the soap star.

The police are not thought to be involved in the investigation, and Bruno has allegedly been away from the set but not suspended. 

A source told The Sun: ‘He is very upset. This is devastating for him. A complaint has been received and is being taken very seriously. 

‘Bruno has been asked to give an account of what happened and that is being checked against the woman’s statement.

‘He doesn’t even know what she is alleging beyond inappropriate conduct. There has been no announcement to cast and crew. Police are not involved at this stage.’

The father-of-one split from partner Victoria Roscoe in 2013 and has since spoken of how he always ‘tries to be a gentleman’ when talking to the opposite sex.

MailOnline has contacted Bruno’s representatives for comment.
