However, the day was “bittersweet” for the actor, as it was also his last working with Ryan Thomas.

Posting on Twitter, he wrote:

Bittersweet day today. I agreed my 14th year on @itvcorrie, but also worked for the last time with my bro, @ryanjamesthomas. Love you Ryno x

Ryan has played Jason Grimshaw since 2000, and his departure was announced in 2015.

In recent months, he’s been at the centre of an emotional storyline, which saw his dad Tony Stewart die off-screen.

There's been plenty of other dramatic moments in ‘Corrie’ lately, and this week, we’ll (finally!) find out how Callum Logan’s body is discovered - while Jason is about to become one of the key suspects.
