Sian Powers is a fictional character from the British soap opera Coronation Street, portrayed by actress Sacha Parkinson. Sian was introduced as a love interest for Sophie Webster (Brooke Vincent). Sian joined the cast of Coronation Street alongside Ben Richardson (Lucien Laviscount) in January 2009 as Sophie's schoolmates. They soon form a new group of teenagers along with Ryan Connor (Ben Thompson). Sian and girlfriend Sophie are Coronation Street's first lesbian couple. It was announced on 29 May 2011 that Parkinson had quit her role, and she made her last on screen appearance on 30 December 2011.
Fifteen-year-old Sian, from Southport, arrives and starts a relationship with Ryan Connor, but later broke up with him. Sian's father attacks Ryan after finding out he slept with his daughter. Sophie developed increasing feelings for Sian and the pair then kiss. Sian initially rejected Sophie, and Sian moved back to Southport to live with her mother, but Sian and Sophie later start a relationship. The two go on to get engaged, but realising that Sophie was attracted to Amber Kalirai (Nikki Patel) and that it was only Amber's rejection that stopped Sophie cheating on her, Sian breaks up with Sophie and leaves Weatherfield.
Sophie and Sian discuss the captain of the swimming team who they both fancy. Sophie jokes with Sian about her crush on Ben. Ben comes to the Websters house to collect Sian and Sophie for youth club. Rosie tells Ryan that Sophie's friend Sian fancies him. Sian's mortified and Sophie's furious with her sister. Sian tells Ryan how brilliant his gig was and they snog under the stars.
Sian starts having stomach pains and Sophie accuses Sian of faking an illness in order to avoid going to the prom. Sian collapses, due to a ruptured appendix and recovers with Sophie by her side. Ryan spots Sian kissing Sophie and feels disgusted. Sian goes to see Ryan, explaining that she is confused, but thinks she is in love with Sophie. She begs Ryan to keep quiet about her relationship with Sophie. Ryan reluctantly agrees and the girls sneak off to a festival together but Sally finds out and insists they stop seeing each other but continue to meet in secret. Sian comes up with a plan for them to spend time together, choir practice at the church.
