Sean Wilson (born 4 April 1965) is an English actor and cheesemaker, best known for his role as Martin Platt in Coronation Street, which he played from 1985 to 2005 and for a brief stint in 2018.
Wilson has said the main reason for leaving the serial in 2005 was because producers informed him of a storyline where he would date an underage girl and he did not agree with it.

In 2018, Wilson reprised his role as Martin Platt in Coronation Street for a few episodes.
