Coronation Street has confirmed that former Hollyoaks and Waterloo Road star Andrew Still is playing Daisy Midgeley's stalker.

The actor made a brief cameo appearance in the show last month, portraying a man who spoke to Daisy in the waiting room of the local hospital.

In recent days, Daisy has been receiving unwanted flowers from someone called Justin. She currently believes that the sender is a DJ she recently flirted with.

Later this week, the DJ clarifies to Daisy that he is not responsible. Daisy then feels helpless as she realises that she has no idea who Justin is.

Next week, Daisy gets upset when Jenny Connor reveals that yet another bouquet of flowers has arrived at The Rovers.

Daisy's phone then rings with an unknown number, leaving her unnerved.

As Daisy speculates over who could be responsible, Justin arrives and explains that they met at the hospital weeks ago.

Justin asks Daisy whether she liked the flowers, but he denies calling her. Daisy doesn't know what to believe.

Later in the week, Daisy receives a box of chocolates along with a note, which reads: "Sorry!"

Justin quickly approaches and admits that he sent the gift, much to Daisy's dismay.

Daisy's mum Christina, who's paying a visit to Weatherfield, unhelpfully claims that she should be flattered by the attention. Will Daisy receive better support from her other loved ones?

Corrie's producer Iain MacLeod recently commented: "[Daisy and Daniel's] next story is about a young woman on the internet and dangers that face influencers who have a high profile.

"In Daisy's case, she has quite a small fry online following, but that brings her into a certain degree of danger as the wedding approaches."

Andrew Still is best known to soap fans for playing the original Joel Dexter on Hollyoaks between 2011 and 2013. He also played Scott Fairchild in Waterloo Road.

Most recently, Andrew portrayed Rory Dashford in Granite Harbour.
