Watch Helen Worth’s final scene as Gail in Coronation Street

Coronation Street’s longstanding character Gail has bid farewell to Weatherfield after 50 years on the cobbles.

In her final episode, broadcast on Christmas Day, viewers saw Gail marry Jesse Chadwick, played by John Thomson.

Actress Helen Worth has played the character through thick and thin since 1974. The ITV soap announced in June that she would depart with “a major storyline for the Platt family”.

The 73-year-old actress has said she felt “truly blessed” about her long Corrie career.
