A former Coronation Street star reunited with two of his long-term colleagues from the ITV show earlier this week.
Chris Gascoyne, 56 - who played Peter Barlow on the soap opera until his departure last year - was supported by pals Jane Danson, 46, and Georgia Taylor, 44, recently. The pair play siblings Leanne Battersby and Toyah Battersby, who have both had past relationships with Peter, respectively.
The trio reunited on Thursday at the Alhambra Theatre in Bradford. Chris is starring as Stromboli in a pantomime production of Pinocchio at the venue, working alongside the likes of RuPaul's Drag Race finalist Courtney Act.
Georgia shared a photo of herself and Jane stood beside their former co-star Chris whilst backstage at the theatre in a post on Instagram. He was seen with his arms wrapped around them both, as the actors smiled for the camera.
Alongside the photo, Georgia praised Chris' performance in the panto production, which launched earlier this month. She told her followers in the caption: "Watching our beloved PB giving his best baddie in Pinocchio." She added: "Eyeliner and black nail varnish never looked so good on a guy."
The post has since attracted more than 6,000 likes on the platform, including from a host of current and former Corrie cast members. The group who liked the post included Tina O'Brien, Claire Sweeney and Alexandra Mardell.
Whilst Sally Carman - who plays Abi Franklin on the show - shared a response in the comments section. She wrote alongside heart-eyed emojis: "Joyous." Liam McCheyne - who plays Dylan Wilson - simply reacted with heart emojis.
Fans also shared their excitement over the reunion. One person commented: "A lovely photo of you all ... do miss Chris playing Peter." Another said: "Owh my heart." A third reacted: "Wonderful to see actors supporting actors."
Someone else wrote in their response: "This is so cute." Sharing their thoughts, one fan said: "Looking fab guys." Whilst another follower commented on the post this week: "Fabulous picture." And another fan said: "Ahhhh. Love it."
Chris had worked alongside both Jane and Georgia for a number of years whilst a cast member on Corrie. He first joined the show in 2000 and initially appeared until 2003. He however reprised his role four years later and then remained in the cast until his most recent exit last year.
Jane first played between 1997 and 2000, though she later returned to the show and has been a cast member again since 2004. Georgia also made her debut in 1997 and initially appeared until 2003, but she's now been back since 2016.
