After They Were Famous

It's always nice to see Corrie alumni turning up on our screens.  It's sad when they turn up in ads, though. Somehow that feels like a let-down.

Tom Kerrigan was in the show for a year, being Liam's wayward cousin, getting kissed by Sean, and then trying it on with his dead cousin's widow.  He was a nice, reliable character, and it was a shame when Philip Kerrigan's contract wasn't renewed.

It's sad to see him now turn up in the Barclays advert.
