Simon also says that he's ready to get back to work and says he's looking forward to his return to Coronation Street. Simon has been on a break from Corrie for personal reasons since September last year.
"I'm pretty sure I'm starting back filming next month but I won't be back on screen until April/May," he said. "I've missed the banter and the playing about. It's not a job, is it? When you're just playing the fool and being daft, it's just good fun. I'm looking forward to getting back to being the old Steve McDonald."
I can't wait to see him back on the Street and wish him all the very best.
