Coronation Street's Sean Tully is to fall in love with a vicar, in a new storyline.
The Rovers Return barman - played by Antony Cotton - will find romance again after meeting clergyman Billy on a night out, but his religious beliefs mean the course of true love doesn't run completely smoothly.
'Corrie' producer Stuart Blackburn said: "It's about time Sean had a romance, he's been unlucky in love for a long time. Billy is a great guy, but his first love is and always will be God and the Church.
""We will be exploring this very modern relationship in the coming months and are delighted to have Daniel on board to play Billy."
Antony is very excited about the storyline as it's been some time since his character dated.
He said: "I am thrilled that Sean is to find love again especially with this unique and exciting storyline. I'm sure it'll have its ups and downs, but that's what makes 'Coronation Street' great.
"Hopefully it will be tender, funny and honest. Heaven!"
Billy, the vicar at Emily Bishop's church, is set to be played by 'Shakespeare in Love' star Daniel Brocklebank who is "hugely excited" to be joining the cast of 'Coronation Street'.
Daniel said: "I'm really looking forward to working with Antony Cotton and the rest of the cast, as well as joining my best mate Hayley Tamaddon on the cobbles."
Daniel is set to begin filming his scenes in the soap next month and his character will arrive in Weatherfield in December.

Lenny Kravitz and his daughter Zoe have got matching tattoos.
The 50-year-old rocker and the 'Divergent' actress paid a visit to New York tattooist Tye Harris on Tuesday night (23.09.14) after the 25-year-old beauty went to support her dad while he recorded an appearance on 'The Late Show With David Letterman'.
Sharing a picture of herself getting her left forearm inked, Zoe wrote on Instagram: "Late night tats with @lennykravitz thanks @tyeharris (sic)"
Her tattoo artist shared the same picture and wrote: "Fun times tattooing @zoeisabellakravitz and @lennykravitz tonight. Good folks #facesinthedark #stencilstuff #redemptionaftercare (sic)"
Lenny has previously admitted he and Zoe share a similar sense of style and his daughter - whose mother is actress Lisa Bonet - often raids his wardrobe for inspitation.
The 'American Woman' star previously said: "Zoe has a lot of my stuff. She took all my boas from the 'Mama Said' era. They were in storage, and I yelled at her, 'Don't steal my boas!' She laughed and said, 'Those words would not come out of most fathers' mouths.' "
And Zoe has credited her father for her self-confidence.
She has said: "Yes, it's a cliché, but this industry can be judgmental, and it's easy to feel like you want to change according to what's cool at that moment. My dad has stayed true to himself, and that's led me to do the same."

Hugh Jackman's wife hates people saying she is "lucky" to have married him.
Deborra-Lee Furness - who has adopted children Oscar, 14, and Ava, nine, with the 'Wolverine' actor, who she married in 1996 - feels "put down" by the demeaning label.
She told Australian Woman's Weekly magazine: "That to me is a putdown. [It's] like you suggesting I won the chook raffle."
The 58-year-old producer also spoke of her belief that there is no such thing as luck but everyone "creates their own destiny".
She added: "If you want something, you put it out there with good intention and you realise it."
And Deborra - who campaigns for the streamlining of international adoption laws - has advised people not to judge the lives of others as it is difficult to know the "challenges" another person faces in their lives.
She said: "When people look at my life, they don't know the challenges [I face], just like I don't know someone else's [challenges].
"With every privilege, comes responsibility and challenges."
Hugh, 45, has previously spoken of his love of his "beautiful, amazing" wife and how much they enjoy dates nights together.
Asked the secret of a happy marriage and family life, he once said: "Make sure you have a date night just the two of you together, without the kids.
"And don't be afraid to tell your kids that you have no idea what you're doing either."

Amber Rose is reportedly convinced Wiz Khalifa has been cheating on her for months.
The 30-year-old model filed for divorce from the 'Black and Yellow' hitmaker yesterday (24.09.14) and friends say she had grown tired of his flimsy excuses for why she couldn't join him on the road.
Sources told TMZ Amber grew suspicious of the 27-year-old rapper - with who she has 19-month-old son Sebastian - when his tour began in July and he told her she couldn't come to the shows.
He reportedly told his spouse she should stay at home with their son, and the source says Amber also claimed Wiz repeatedly stressed he was their main bread winner and wanted to be left alone to make money.
However, the 'We Dem Boyz' hitmaker is said to believe Amber is making up the allegations to cover for her own closeness to newly-separated Nick Cannon, and has also complained privately that she is a "big nag".
Despite Wiz's suspicions, Nick - who is currently living apart from wife Mariah Carey - has insisted they are untrue and he and Amber have a strictly professional relationship, following her recent signing to his NCredible Entertainment management company.
The 'America's Got Talent' star, who has three-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with Mariah, 44, claims he only learned that Amber was having marriage troubles last week through her lawyers when he signed her on as a client.
The source added: "That's when Nick says he found out her marriage was on the rocks and only then did the two share break-up stories."

Pamela Anderson has been left devastated by the death of her dog Jo.
The former Baywatch beauty - who has sons Brandon, 18, and Dylan, 17, with ex-husband Tommy Lee - has paid tribute to her "sweet" pet after he passed away earlier today (25.09.14), but did not give any details on the exact cause of death.
Writing on her Facebook page, the 47-year-old said: "Our sweet Jo passed away today... He still feels close... even closer somehow.. (sic)"
She added: "Relentless love - will never leave our hearts. He taught us so much."
Pamela was often spotted taking Jo for walks near her home and is a notable animal lover, working on behalf of the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) to help ensure pets are properly cared for by their owners.
In a PETA video posted earlier this year, Pamela stripped to music and prepared to cuddle up next to what the audience is led to believe is a man, but is, in fact, her mutt.
Pamela posted the video on Valentine's Day (14.02.14) as a means of raising awareness of the issue.
Last month, meanwhile, Pamela performed a U-turn on her decision to divorce Rick Salomon.
The twice-married couple looked to be heading for another divorce until Pamela filed a petition requesting the judge ignores her earlier efforts to make their split official.

Simon Kinberg has refused to rule out the possibility of recastings for 'X-Men: Apocalypse'.
According to the writer-producer, 20th Century Fox has been contemplating whether to cast new actors in the iconic roles from the 'X-Men' franchise.
He told Yahoo: "It'd be very hard to do, because Halle [Berry], Famke [Janssen], and Jimmy [Marsden] and others have done such wonderful jobs of bringing those characters to life.
"But I also would have said before 'First Class' that there would be no actors who can stand alongside Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart."
The roles of Professor Xavier and Magneto were played by McKellen, 75, and Stewart, 74, in Fox's first three films, and more recently by James McAvoy, 35, and Michael Fassbender, 37, respectively.
And looking to the future of the franchise, Kinberg said: "In Apocalypse, it will really be the continuation of the 'past' of Days of Future Past."
Earlier this week, it was confirmed that Bryan Singer will direct 'X-Men: Apocalypse'.
Singer, 49, has worked on three previous instalments of the Marvel franchise and will return as the director of the next movie.
'X-Men: Apocalypse' is set to hit cinema screens on May 27, 2016.

Andrew Adamson is to direct an adaptation of Steve Niles's 'Breath of Bones'.
Adamson, 47, who has previously directed 'Chronicles of Narnia', has agreed to make a film based on the comic.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Adamson explained the plot of the film, saying: "Telling a story can be tough. It's the one monster rooted in religion and mysticism, so I wanted to be respectful.
"I decided to tell it as a World War II fable. It's a story of a grandfather teaching his grandson how to make a monster to defend his village against a Nazi invasion."
The comic on which the new film will be based was co-written by Matt Santoro, while Dave Watcher was responsible for the distinctive artwork, for which he was nominated for a Russ Manning Award.
Adamson, meanwhile, has an impressive track record for directing creative films, having made the first two films in the 'Shrek' franchise, in addition to 'Narnia' movies 'The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe' and 'Prince Caspian'.
The eagerly-awaited new film is to be produced by Mike Richardson and Keith Goldberg, who will work alongside Adamson and his producing partner Aron Warner.

Lindsay Lohan forgot her lines during her West End debut.
The troubled actress took to the stage in London last night (24.09.14) for the opening of her play 'Speed-the-Plow' and though she was praised for a "charming" performance, reports claim the audience "laughed" at her problems with the dialogue.
The Daily Beast website wrote: "In the first night of previews, a work-in-progress feel is to be expected.
"But halfway through the second act of 'Speed-the-Plow', the audience was openly laughing at Lohan's struggle to grasp Mamet's sharp, trademark dialogue.
"After her first audible prompt, which came shortly after the interval, the audience sat patiently. The second led to titters in the stalls. Unfortunately for Lohan, the next line delivered by Richard Schiff (Toby from 'The West Wing') was: 'You have done a fantastic job!' The laughter grew louder."
The 26-year-old beauty had admitted before the performance she was worried about the number of lines she had in the second half of the play, especially because it has been so long since she acted.
She said:"You know, when you think about it, I was doing other things before this, and I was travelling, and I come back and I'm looking at this thing and I'm like, 'Oh f***'. The whole of Act Two, I just speak throughout the whole thing.
"It feels really cool. It feels really good. It does. It's... terrifying, at times. Because in the beginning I, like, panicked. I was like, Oh my f***, I can't say all this s***.' "
Lindsay will star in 'Speed-the-Plow' until November 29.

Cara Delevingne finds it hard to be friends with guys.
The 22-year-old model has a large group of female pals - including Rihanna, Rita Ora and Georgia May Jagger - and prefers to be in their company because men just want to sleep with her.
Speaking to the Best of Beauty edition of Allure magazine - for which she posed naked - Cara said: "I think it's harder to become friends with guys, because guys just want to have sex with you."
Elsewhere in the publication, the British star confessed to backing a campaign that fights for women to be allowed to bare their breasts in public in the same way men are able to go topless.
Asked her favourite Instagram page, she said it was the @freethenipplelives campaign account.
Cara is famous for her bushy eyebrows but insists she does nothing but "make sure they are there" every day, though if she has a big night out she will use "an eyebrow comb and eyebrow gel" to ensure they are well groomed.
While Cara was quick to identify her most loved film as 'Anchorman' and 'Scandal' as her must-watch TV show, she struggled to choose a favourite song.
She said: "That's too hard! I love music. There are too many to choose from."
Despite her slender frame, the Burberry beauty likes to start her day with a hearty breakfast of "scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast."
And completing the quiz on her favourite things, she singled out all of Rihanna's body art as her favourite "tattoo on someone else".

Lionel Richie has had a hip replacement.
The 65-year-old former Commodores singer was left with arthritis due to years of wearing platform boots and dancing around on stage so had the joint replaced three years ago.
He told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "Since the Commodores days, we don't wear those big boots any more because of the knees and the ankles.
"I think about it now, and think, 'What was I doing?!' Every night, on stage, we'd jump from one riser to the floor. Craziness! What was I thinking?"
Lionel - who had the operation on his hip three years ago - was happy to praise the technology available to those who suffered from joint problems and says he is now "better than ever".
He added: "I have had a little knee problem, a little hip problem, but not as bad as all that. Although I did have to have a hip operation three years ago and, honestly, I hardly remember which one it is now because technology is so amazing. I put it off for about a year then one day thought, 'Screw it, let it go' and had it done.
"So everything about me now is brand new. I'm bionic... well, no, not really, but the hip is better than ever and touring has been great. I don't even know I've got it."

Dame Helen Mirren's body double for her new film is 39 years her junior.
The 69-year-old actress is in such good shape that bosses on the set of war thriller 'Eye in the Sky' have drafted in stunt performer Fleur van Eeden, 30, as her stand in.
Fleur - who is currently in Cape Town, South Africa, where the film is being shot - told the Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's amazing to be playing her body double when I'm [almost] 40 years younger than her. But Helen looks fantastic.
"No way does she look her age - she looks amazing. I want to look like that when I'm 69."
Fleur - who has also been a body double for the likes of 39-year-old Charlize Thero - has enjoyed meeting the Oscar-winning actress while they have been filming in South Africa.
The body double said: "She is an amazing lady and thanked me so much for doubling her. She was awestruck by the beauty of where we were filming."
One scene from 'Eye in the Sky' in which Fleur was asked to stand in for Dame Helen sees her race a 4x4 across rough terrain.

Sam Faiers and Joey Essex have got back together.
The former 'The Only Way is Essex' stars have reunited once again and are keen to take their relationship to the next level after they split up earlier this month following a string of arguments in Marbella.
Speaking to The Sun newspaper, Sam, 23, said: "We always bicker on holiday. But we're happy now. I hope we eventually move in together."
Joey, 24, jokingly added: "We won't be going back to Marbella for a while."
The turbulent couple, who got engaged in March 2013 and then split three months later before reconciling again earlier this year, "constantly bickered" during the trip, which left Joey no choice but to dump Sam.
A source said earlier this week: "Joey and Sam have been on the rocks for a while. They are constantly bickering and falling out. It's not been pretty."
However, Joey was said to be struggling to come to terms with the split as he thought the blonde beauty was the one he'd spend the rest of his life with.
The source added: "He always thought Sam was the one. It'll take some time for him to get over her."
Meanwhile, the on/off pair launched new parcel service Doddle together yesterday (24.09.14) in London.
