Corrie fans ask for more from character as they spot 'cute little family' forming

Coronation Street fans have asked for one particular character to feature a little more after they spot 'cute little family' forming.

During Monday night's double trip to Weatherfield viewers saw Natasha Blakeman ask Nick Tilsley if he could look after their son, Sam, while she went to London for a week.

It comes after Natasha refused to let Nick and Leanne look after Sam after he was kidnapped by one of drug lord Harvey's men.

He was then caught in the crossfire when Harvey sent a gunshot warning ahead of Leanne giving evidence against him.

So Nick and Sam were delighted to be spending more time together as Natasha put her trust back in her ex.

Getting settled in at the flat, Leanne returned and Sam excitedly told her had put some posters up in his and Oliver's room.

Asked if she wanted to see, Leanne declined and hurried off for a shower leaving Sam worried he had upset her.

As fans saw last year, Olliver passed away in heartbreaking scenes after being diagnosed with an incurable form of mitochondrial disease.

Nick soon suggested they take the posters down before Leanne stepped in to stop them and instructs Sam to put his posters back on the wall as Oliver's old bedroom.

"Oliver's Oliver & Sam's Sam, there will be times when I feel sad and want be on my own," she explained.

"I just want you to feel like one of the family because you are," Leanne then told the youngster.

Corrie fans were left praising the touching scenes.

"The scene of Leanne letting Sam keep his posters in Oliver’s room was so sweet I’m looking forward to Nick, Sam, Leanne and Simon being a family #corrie," tweeted one.

Another said: "I love how Leanne is accepting Sam as part of the family #Corrie."

"Nick, Leanne & Sam are such a cute little family. Can't believe they've actually been together over 20 years now #Corrie," a third added.

A fourth said: "@itvcorrie: Lovely scenes between@RealJaneDanson, #BenPrice and young @JudeRiordan tonight. Delightful to see the development of the new "family" dynamic, and equally nice to see #Leanne being allowed a sense of happiness and acceptance of #Sam. Great viewing! #Corrie."

But it also prompted some to want to see more of Natasha.

"I hope they do something more with Natasha soon. #Corrie," one fan said.

Another tweeted: "Natasha deserves more of a storyline, instead of constantly revolving around Nick, Sam & Leanne #Corrie."
