Claire Sweeney: 'My Good Ship Murder character is so different to Corrie's Cassie'
Channel 5’s latest murder mystery drama is about to set sail - and Coronation Street fans can expect a mini soap reunion to take place on board. Shayne Ward, Catherine Tyldesley and Claire Sweeney are swapping the cobbles for the high seas in The Good Ship Murder, a new series from Ridley creator Paul Mayhew Thompson.The X Factor winner Shayne stars as Jack, an ex-copper-turned-cruise-singer who’s tasked with catching a killer on the luxury liner alongside its First Officer Kate, played by Catherine. “For me, I’m playing a detective for the first time - and the fact that I get to sing as well, it just felt like it was the right time for this to happen,” Shayne says.
