Coronation Street star Colson Smith couldn't quite believe what he saw while out on a run in Greater Manchester - so he took to social media to tell his followers about it. Many fans of the actor, who plays Craig Tinker in the ITV soap, know he is a keen runner and gym-goer.
Colson. who is reported to have lost 10 stone, underwent a major life and body overhaul during lockdown. He has previously said he weighed 140kg before he discovered a love for running, with him now regularly documenting his runs and gym visits on social media.
But the 23-year-old's latest trip pounding the pavements came with a shock as he encountered a snake on the streets of Trafford. Sharing a video to his Instagram Story, the Corrie co-star could still be seen in his running gear - a grey t-shirt and matching jacket with a snap-back hat - back at home in his flat.
