ITV Coronation Street Jack P Shepherd fumes at Bill Roache as he and Colson Smith reveal major name error on This Morning

Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd has jokingly shared his annoyance after his long-time co-star William Roache, also known as Bill, dropped a huge clanger during their recent set interaction.

Jack is famed for playing David Platt in the ITV soap, a role he has held since 2000 after bagging the now famous role as a teenager while Bill is Corrie's longest-serving star having been playing Ken Barlow since the very first episode back in December 1960. But it appears that despite appearing together in the programme for 23 years, Bill can't separate Jack from his character.

Appearing on This Morning on Tuesday (April 18) alongside his Corrie co-star Colson Smith to chat about their podcast's latest live show in Manchester later this year, the pair were shown clips briefly showing their time on the cobbles. Jack was told by Phillip Schofield: "You were very young though."
