Ian Puleston-Davies confirms he is leaving Coronation Street

Ian Puleston-Davies, who plays Owen Armstrong, was interviewed recently on Uckfield FM, a community radio programme.  You can download the interview from this tweet below and listen to it on your PC as a zip file.

The radio show asked Ian if the rumour was true that he's leaving Coronation Street, he said: "Yes, it is true". He says that it'll be five years that he's been on Corrie and he's been getting a bit fidgety and it's "now or never" while he's got fire in his belly, to move on to other roles and more shows.

Asked what would Anna do without Owen on the cobbles, Ian joked that Anna might get together with Tim or even Norris!

Ian talks about Owen's ex-wife turning up on Coronation Street but denies that Owen will be leaving with Katy and Owen's ex-wife.  He said that Corrie asked him to stay on for an extra six months so that they could come up with a juicy exit storyline for Owen, but he had already decided to leave at the end of his contract.

We wish Ian all the very best for his future.
