The Teesside Gazette reports that the pair were guests of honour at a Coronation Street Bistro-themed lunch, where they enjoyed freshly prepared food with the staff, residents and relatives at the homes.
A spokesperson for Middlesbrough Grange said residents had been looking forward to the visit.
“Our residents love watching Coronation Street and so they were really excited to see Tyrone in real life,” the spokesperson said.
Alan and Lucy-Jo signed autographs and memorabilia for residents and staff, and took part in a raffle. Have a look at the gallery of pictures here.
