CORONATION Street fans all had the same complaint as Gail Platt returned to the Cobbles this week.
The character – played by Helen Worth – returned from Thailand to pay her respects following Norris Cole’s death.
She has been enjoying some rest and relaxation abroad as she recovers from a heart attack, but wanted to say her final goodbye.
Viewers of the ITV soap were however rather distracted as they noticed she was wearing a towel on her head – despite her hair being dry.
She appeared on screen chatting to her mum Audrey in a white shirt and purple jumper and a matching purple head towel.
Those watching at home were baffled about why she was wearing it though and took to Twitter to question it.
One person tweeted: “Why’s Gail got a towel on dry hair? #Corrie #coronationstreet.”
Another added: “Loving this corrie tonight, kidnapping and now Gail’s magic towel have you washed it or Nah?! #coronationstreet.”
While someone else remarked: “Why’s Gail got a towel on dry hair? #coronationstreet.”
It later transpired that Gail was wearing the towel because Audrey was about to give her a haircut.
Meanwhile, in upcoming scenes, Gail is set to try and stage an intervention with Audrey to address issues with her health.
She grows concerned after she notices her eye-sight failing on more than one occasion.
