Kenny Doughty has sparked panic amongst Vera fans with a cryptic 'thanks for the memories' post on Instagram, which has left his followers worried that either he has quit the drama or, even worse, that the show itself has been axed.
Kenny has been playing DS Aiden Healy on Vera since 2015, becoming a fan favourite, after they were shocked by the sudden departure of Vera's original sidekick David Leon. Kenny, who starred in Coronation Street before joining Vera, played a key role in Vera's recent run, which treated ITV viewers to the last two episodes of series 11 and four new tales from the programme's 12th series.
Vera's latest stint on screen came to an the weekend before last, with it being replaced in its Sunday 8pm slot by Inspector Morse spin-off Endeavour, as fans sought answers on when it would be back.
