  Simon is currently involved in a storyline concentrating on depression and one of the show's producers, Stuart Blackburn, recently revealed that this would form a major part of the Christmas Day episode. "On Christmas Day and beyond, we'll see a real challenge to Steve and Michelle's relationship. I absolutely know that Simon Gregson and Kym Marsh are very good actors," said Blackburn.
