Coronation Street star Jude Riordan was all smiles as he cosied up to Michelle Keegan after a 'tough week'. The young actor is best known for playing Sam Blakeman in the ITV soap. However, some will already know that he has another small screen role that runs alongside his appearance in Corrie.
The 11-year-old plays Tyler Croft in Brassic, the son of Michelle's character, Erin. Jude and Michelle, who played Tina McIntyre in Corrie from 2008 to 2014, have worked together on the hit Sky comedy since the first season in 2019. The series follows the lives of Vinnie O'Neill and his friends in the fictional town of Hawley. Before the first episode had even aired, it was announced that Brassic had been renewed for a second series, which premiered in May 2020.
Filming for the fifth series of the BAFTA-nominated comedy started late last year with viewers promised 'more of the eccentric plans and hi-jinks from the Brassic gang' following the fourth series, which was broadcast from September last year.
