INTERVIEW WITH JACOB ROBERTS AS OPENS UP ABOUT HIS CHARACTER

Since his arrival on the cobbles of Weatherfield, Coronation Street viewers have seen Kit revealed as Bernie Winter's son who she gave up for adoption.
During next week's episodes, viewers will see Kit introduce himself to his brother and sister, Gemma and Paul Winter, but how will the twins react to the news? It's all going to be a big shock to them, however, I think it will make for some interesting scenes.

Talking about Kit being reluctant to start a relationship with his mum, Jacob Roberts who plays Kit said: "He is still very angry, he doesn’t want anything to do with her. As far as he is aware she abandoned him twice, once when he was born and then again when he was 20 and he arranged to meet her and she didn’t show up. He has a lot of unresolved issues."

Kit decides to go around to flat speaking about what happens, Jacob adds: "He wants to tell Gemma and Paul his version of events. He wants them to know how their mum abandoned him and kept his existence from them. He is determined to make it clear how they all missed out and really make it clear how selfish he feels she was. He does get some pleasure about doing it behind her back. He wants to hurt her like she hurt him."

Do you think Kit will ever be able to forgive Bernie? "Not for some time, he is getting some perverse pleasure from being round where she is and forging a relationship with his siblings. It will be interesting to see how long he can keep that up before he realises the only way to move forward really is to try and forgive his mum."

Talking about coming into an established family, Jacob said: "It is fantastic, I am having such a great time here and everyone has been so welcoming. Jane Hazelgrove is great to work with and has been such a help as have the rest of the family. I also get to work with other cast members because of Kit being a policeman which is great."

Coronation Street airs on ITV1 Monday, Wednesday, and Friday's at 8pm (all subject to change due to the Euro's - please check TV listings)
