Henry Newton

Henry Newton is the son of Philip Newton and the grandson of the former Newton & Ridley director Cecil Newton.

In November 2017, Gemma Winter attended a party and caught the attention of Henry by stealing an ornament and writing 'pie in a tin' onto a shopping list. Henry decided to speak to Gemma and was charmed by her quirks of stashing snacks in ovens and her references to pies.

Gemma pretended that her name was Jemima and led Henry to believe that she was a nurse. When the police arrived at the party, Gemma rushed out, believing that they were going to arrest her for stealing the ornament. Henry was upset not to have got Gemma's number but noticed that she had left her shoe behind and decided to seek her out in Weatherfield.

Henry called in to The Kabin and asked Norris Cole if he knew of anybody called Jemima who was really sweet, in their twenties and had a lovely laugh. Norris told Henry that Jemima was far too posh a name for Coronation Street and that he may have more luck in a different area of town.

Norris later realised who Henry was referring to and led him to the Rovers, where Gemma was speaking to Liz McDonald about her time at the party. Henry later suggested that they should meet up again and complimented Liz on a 'fantastic little boozer'. Recognising who he was, Liz informed Gemma that Henry was Cecil Newton's grandson and that she had landed on her feet with a relationship with him.
