TV

09:30 17 March 2006

'Coronation Street' factory worker Sean Tully gets so lonely he invents a gay boyfriend.

The camp character makes up a lover because he is so fed up at not having a partner.

Sean, played by actor Anthony Cotton, invents a whole personality for his imaginary lover - and even tells his work colleagues how sexy his new man is.

But things start to go awry when Sean's intrigued co-workers hint they want to meet his mystery man.

Sean has no idea what to do, and is terrified his embarrassing lie will be exposed.

He turns to Jamie Baldwin, who is played by actor Rupert Hill, for advice.

Jamie tells Sean he will have to break up with his non-existent lover.

He suggests the camp factory worker tells his fellow employees he called time on their romance because his boyfriend was getting too serious.
