CORONATION STREET - CHARLES RETURNS TO CORONATION STREET

LATEST: Troubled British TV star CRAIG CHARLES has returned to soap opera CORONATION STREET following his drug scandal last year (06). The 42-year-old was suspended in June after photographs of him allegedly snorting cocaine in the back of a taxi were printed in a British newspaper. Charles, who plays cab firm owner LLOYD MULLANEY, was cautioned by police for being in possession of a class A drug. He was also suspended by the BBC, for whom he hosts a funk show on digital radio station 6 Music. The former RED DWARF star has thanked his family and his fans for supporting him and said he was "happy to be back" filming.
