Coronation Street fans have rushed to offer Ryan Prescott their support as he said an emotional "thank you" on Instagram.
The star, who plays Ryan Connor in the long-running ITV soap, took to social media on Tuesday evening following months of a dramatic storyline that has seen his character subject to a horrific acid attack and his subsequent recovery from the evil crime.
Sharing a number of photos of himself on set, Ryan said it is a "privilege" to perform on Corrie.
