Noel wants Street cameo

Noel Gallagher has appealed to the bosses of 'Coronation Street' to let him guest star on the soap, admitting that he and his girlfriend are addicted to the show. Speaking to Radio 1, he suggested he could be wheeled in to punch the soap's recent bad boy character David Platt, before taking on his mother, the long term Street character and very slappable Gail Platt. Gallagher told Radio 1: "They are all brilliant. It's such an institution that programme, I love it. Why they've never asked me to be in it is really one of the scandals of our age". Reps for the show told the NME they were "thrilled" the Oasis man was a fan, but wouldn't comment on whether including the rocker in a storyline had ever been considered.
