The talented teenage son of Coronation Street legend Phil Middlemiss is torn between careers as a champion boxer or TV star. Alfie Middlemiss, 19, is following in the footsteps of his soap icon dad Phil with his burgeoning acting career - while also rising swiftly up the ranks in the amateur boxing world.
He will be seen starring in the Madame Blanc Mysteries on Channel 5 this Christmas alongside the likes of ex-Corrie star Sally Lindsay and Blackadder icon Tony Robinson. Meanwhile, earlier this year Alfie was crowned national champion at his weight in the England Boxing Championships.
He hopes to be able to combine both his passions for boxing and acting for as long as possible. And his dad Phil, who famously played bookie Des Barnes in Coronation Street in the 1990s, and mum Leanne are both proudly cheering him on in both professions.
