Tyrone on Coronation Street on August 13, 2025 / ITV
Coronation Street star Alan Halsall – aka Tyrone Dobbs – has signed a new deal keeping him on the soap until at least the end of 2026.
The news means that the actor, 43, will pass the 28-year mark of playing the lovable mechanic, having made his debut as a 16-year-old in November 1998.
“Alan was thrilled to sign his contract earlier this year,” a source told The Sun.
“He’s made Tyrone into a cobbles classic so bosses are delighted he’s agreed to stay for at least another year.
“There are big things coming up for the soap and Tyrone in the coming year.”
On screen, Tyrone is currently involved in a storyline that has seen him having to use a wheelchair after being involved in a car accident.
