Coronation Street favourite Jack P Shepherd, who has played the iconic role of David Platt for over two decades, was spotted letting loose in Manchester recently. The actor, known for his gripping performances on the cobbles, showed a different side as he enjoyed a fun-filled evening with pals.
Shepherd, 35, looked every bit the relaxed star as he laughed and chatted with friends, proving there's more to him than just the dramatic storylines of Weatherfield. Dressed casually but stylishly, the actor appeared to be thoroughly enjoying his downtime away from the ITV soap's demanding schedule.
Fans of the long-running series will know Shepherd joined Coronation Street as a child actor back in 2000 and has since become one of the show's most recognisable faces. His portrayal of David Platt has earned him numerous awards and nominations, cementing his status as one of British soap's finest talents.
While Shepherd is no stranger to Manchester's vibrant nightlife scene, sightings of the star enjoying himself always generate excitement among loyal Coronation Street viewers. This latest appearance shows the actor in high spirits, perhaps taking a well-deserved break from filming the soap's intense upcoming storylines.
Manchester has long been a favourite haunt for Coronation Street cast members, with many choosing to socialise in the city where they film the iconic show. Shepherd's night out serves as a reminder that even soap stars need time to unwind after bringing some of television's most dramatic moments to life.
