Coronation Street, the UK's longest running and most watched soap opera will air its first lesbian kiss. The show has snowballed a massive following during its 50-year run, and a gay kiss will surely be a hot topic among school-aged children and grandmas alike.
While, the storyline has not been confirmed, the Internet is swirling with rumors.
According to one source:
Religious teenager Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent) will snog friend Sian Powers (Sacha Parkinson) when a comforting hug turns passionate, the Sun claims.
A source told the newspaper: "Sophie and Sian think they're just good friends but their feelings for each other have been growing."
The source went on: "Things come to a head when Ryan tries to kiss Sophie. Sian runs back to Sophie sobbing - and their emotions take over."
The teens' embrace comes despite the pair taking a vow of chastity.
Many are reporting that the scene will air on Friday, April 9. [UKPA]
