A young Coronation Street actor has made an incredible mark on the cobbles since joining the Virgin Media soap in 2020.
Jude Riordan plays the character of Sam Blakeman, the long-lost son of Nick Tilsley, and recently lost his mother after she was fatally shot by Harvey Gaskell.
His portrayal of the youngster’s grief had Corrie fans across Ireland and beyond in floods of tears as he bid an emotional goodbye to his mum.
