    I was on the street touring 1991, I got pictures in the magazine you are one of the hottest ,cutest cast and also got a watch every hour coronation street theme. I’m from Runcorn . That was my favourite trip 😂 on the cobbles. I grew up with Corrie with many generations with my family so many years in the 1950 when just started. When Corrie was on no body was allowed to talk. I thought you were all of my family on Tellie . 😂❤

    Whether or not it's poking fun, I resent this programme best of times; How would they react to Brad Pitt for example? Some women generally really lack listening and ascertaining what the male speaker is trying to convey, ala his experience, and his own well-being. Steve McDonald from the very early 90s was a Heartthrob. Good Guy and I wish him well.

    No offence intended but I've always thought acting was not the best occupation if you suffer with anxiety or don't like being approached? There are maybe other things he could try like directing or producing? It's the same when actors say they're shy. Bette Davies said much the same, could there be a worse job than acting if you're shy?

    • @antpoo71
      @antpoo71 2 дня назад +3

      Its probably that passion to perform. It probably helps with confidence. There are probably alot of performers who're more introvert but the desire to act/sing/dance forces them to do it.
      Being approached is probably overwhelming, then some would say it comes with the territory. People are more intrusive nowadays phones etc ?
      Like u said there're plenty of other occupations though.

      @@antpoo71 I just don't think you can have a passion to perform if you're anxious or shy though. I've always thought actors were just show offs or attention seekers, same with pop stars. You know you're going to have people watching you, that's what gives them a buzz. I don't know that much about him, maybe he only got anxiety in recent years? Either way like I said couldn't he take a job behind the scenes?

      Occasionally I read of performers who as youngsters were shy. I think John Thaw was one. In the end if you have a desire to perform you do it. The bottom line is people do what they want to do.
