Former Coronation Street actor Chris Fountain recently revealed he suffered a mini-stroke which has left him "speaking like a toddler".
Chris, who played Tommy Duckworth on the cobbles for three years, was hospitalised for five days in August and is now awaiting surgery after a blood clot was lodged in his brain and suffered what is known as a Transient Ischaemic Attack (TIA).
The 35-year-old actor had roles in Hollyoaks and Coronation Street and even took part in the third series of Dancing On Ice – but his showbiz career ended after he filmed a video of himself rapping about rape.
