Coronation Street star Colson Smith was left begging 'go easy on me' before bagging a new role in an unexpected ITV crossover.
The actor is known for playing Craig Tinker in the ITV soap and recently celebrated 12 years treading the cobbles. But on Friday night as he headed into the weekend, Colson ditched Weatherfiled for the stage in Manchester.
An Instagram post from Corrie's official Instagram account confirmed that the soap star would be joining the Loose Women on tour.
It said: "Colson is joining the Loose Women ladies tonight - live in Manchester! In his words: "Go easy on me please".
