Craig Gazey, who plays Coronation Street's Graeme Proctor was on ITV's This Morning, er, this morning.
You can watch the video here if you're in the UK. All I can say to overseas fans who can't view this video, is sorry, but here's a quick recap of the important points he covers:
Craig talks about Graeme's upcoming sham Corrie wedding to Xin on Friday 8th April. There's a clip of a future episode showing Tina coming out of Tommy Duckworth's front door first thing in the morning and Graeme's as jealous as can be. He has a laugh about actor Chris Fountain (Tommy)'s fake tan and he calls him Chris Fountan.
Craig says that when he first joined Corrie he wrote himself a note to remind himself not to stay longer on the Street than two years. He's a versatile actor and wants new challenges, he says. He thanks the people at Corrie, says it's been amazing with wonderful people to work with. He acknowledges the public response to Graeme as a wonderful character and he rubbishes the piece in The Sun yesterday that says he doesn't want to come back - he'd love to return and we'd love to see him back too.
For the future, he wants to work in theatre again and do a stage play as he misses theatre work a lot. He wants to do something completely different to Graeme and show some depth with a drama. He's also running the London Marathon and you can sponsor him here.
