If flicking fag-ends into the street was an Olympic sport, Coronation Street's Chris Gascoyne would win a gold medal.
His most recent effort was the best yet, arcing into the air in a spectacular shower of sparks. It was especially good as the camera angle (ooh - get me! camera angles!) was quite low, sort of close to wheelchair level.
However, my favourite one is still probably the effort from several months ago, where he was casually leaning against the wall of the bookies, smoking - then as he moves off, he flicks the end into the gutter.
Class!
I'm finding it a little difficult to take Peter seriously in that wheelchair by the way. No disrespect to anyone else who happens to use one in "real life". The crutches are also a problem for me - I keep wondering if they're the same set that Eddie Windass used to use. Here's hoping he'll be back on his feet before too long, walloping smarmy Nicky Tilsley round the chops.
