Coronation Street star Natalie Gumede has admitted that she would like her character Kirsty Soames to be Weatherfield's next baddie.

Kirsty has angered fans with her behaviour since starting a romance with Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) last year.

She made an enemy of Tina McIntyre (Michelle Keegan) and has discourage Tyrone from seeing his pals.

Natalie told the Daily Record: "I've already had people shouting, 'Leave our Tina alone' and, 'You'd better look after Tyrone!' at me in the street.

"Potentially she could be [a villain]. She's certainly a dark character and I'd be happy if she turned out to be villainous for a while."

She added: "There's certainly an edge with Kirsty and a lot more to discover.

"She's damaged goods but I hope she comes out the other side and we see some justification for why she is the way she is."

Gumede revealed that she is enjoying her time on Corrie, even though her appearance could be short-lived.

She said: "I'm in until July and then there are a couple of options so I don't know if I'm just a vehicle for Tyrone or Tina or if it's a long term thing.

"So I'm just enjoying every minute because I love going to work every day."
