Reference: Visit websiteA few weeks back, it was confirmed that Helen will be departing her role as Gail Platt after 50 years on the Cobbles. Bosses have confirmed Helen will start filming her exit story soon and they will air at the end of the year.
Speaking at the time, Helen shared: ⁘This year felt like the perfect time to leave the show after celebrating 50 years in the most wonderful job on the most wonderful street in the world .
Now Paddy - who plays Max - has opened up about Gail's exit from the soap. Speaking exclusively to The Mirror and other press, he said: ⁘I think Helen is the kindest soul. I think she has a radical kindness about her; she's one of the loveliest people I've ever met and she makes me feel calm and safe.
He added: ⁘The words 'legend' and 'icon' get used a lot these days but they genuinely do apply to Gail and to Helen Worth. However, given her humility, I know Helen won't thank me for saying so!
⁘In Helen's hands, Gail has been a huge part of Coronation Street for five decades and at the centre of some of the most memorable storylines - often deriving from her catastrophically bad luck in choosing husbands! ... Gail has given us countless hours of entertainment but it should also be said that Helen herself is a consummate professional and a thoroughly good egg.⁘
