Coronation Street stars were showing their Manchester Pride - heading out on the huge parade in celebration of LGBTQ+ culture through the streets of the city on Saturday. A host of famous faces from the soap headed on to an ITV open-top bus to wave to the thousands of cheering crowds lining the streets of the city.
Among stars heading on to the Pride-branded double decker were the soap's Daniel Brocklebank, Jodie Prenger, Peter Gunn, Antony Cotton, Dolly-Rose Campbell and Jane Hazelgrove. They were joined by soap newcomer Robert Shaw Cameron who plays dentist Laurence Reeves and is set to be a new love interest for Corrie stalwart Sean Tully played by Antony.
It was the first time at Manchester Pride for Peter Gunn, who plays the soap's Brian Packham, although he was getting fully into the swing with glitter adorning his face. But while he admitted he was a "Manchester Pride virgin" he has been a long-standing supporter of Pride events across the UK.
