Who is this lad and what has he done with Josh Peacock?

Sharper eyes than mine picked up something on last night's Coronation Street that, when I looked again this morning, proved spot on. The little boy who played Josh Peacock was not child actor Ben Beresford. Have we had a recast or was Ben temporarily unavailable? Inquiring minds want to know. Oh gosh! Maybe we've had another Corrie baby switch, back when Josh was in hospital after his allergy attack!

Kris Green says Ben Beresford is still playing the role of Joshua, whilst the new lad is Freddie. He looks older than 3 IMO

Ahhhhh... they've aged Freddie? I guess it does make sense as in the daytime, Josh would be in school.

Wow he looks quite different to the old Freddie and more like Josh so not surprising that it's confusing!

Yes, Freddie was born July 2006 so that makes him 3 years old while the new Freddie looks a lot older than that. I hate it when they do that and mess with character's ages.
