Ex-Corrie star: My reputation was ruined in just 8 minutes

CORONATION Street star Sean Wilson has said his world has been 'blown apart' after a historic assault allegation led to his comeback on the soap being axed.

Sean played nurse Martin Platt in the ITV soap for 21 years and had been due to come back for a blockbuster Christmas storyline with his ex-screen wife Gail (Helen Worth) ahead of her own departure.

But the 59-year-old's return was suddenly axed in the summer pending a police inquiry into an alleged indecent assault from 1997, the actor told The Sun on Sunday.

Wilson said his contract was terminated following a meeting he claims lasted only a few minutes, leaving him 'confused' and 'in total shock! Speaking to the newspaper, the actor turned cheese-maker said: "My reputation was ruined in just eight minutes - my whole world blown apart.
