Coronation Street fans were left stunned on Wednesday night when soap star Bruce Jones revealed his connection to the Yorkshire Ripper on a new ITV documentary.
The first episode of Yorkshire Ripper: The Secret Murders explored Peter Sutcliffe's early offending and posited that his murderous spree began at least six years earlier than previously believed.
Among the new evidence, the 69-year-old soap veteran appeared on the programme to detail how he became caught up in the devastating murders.
