Coronation Street fans have shared their joy after Benidorm star Tony Maudsley made a big career announcement.
The Liverpool born actor has appeared as George Shuttleworth on the cobbles since 2020, though his character hasn't been seen in the soap for a couple of months. His most recent episode aired in January, when George let slip to Sally that he knew about Tim's triple heart bypass before she did.
George is the son of the late Archie Shuttleworth. Following his father's death in 2018, George took on Shuttleworth's Independent Funeral Services.
