Coronation Street star Andy Whyment got his co-stars and other TV favourites responding as he shared some baby-faced throwback snaps from one of his early TV jobs. Viewers of the ITV soap best know the actor for playing the slightly ditsy but loveable Kirk Sutherland for more than 20 years.
And while Salford-born actor Andy has since cemented himself as a firm favourite among Corrie viewers, away from the famous street, his first credited part was actually in Cracker in 1993 and he also had minor roles in The Cops, Heartbeat and Where the Heart Is.
Taking to Instagram this week, the soap star reminded fans of his time on Heartbeat with a few brilliant snaps which showed him looking very young and with longer, mousey brown hair than what Corrie viewers will be used to.
