In an interview with the Mirror, actor Nigel Havers who plays Coronation Street's Lewis the escort, says that he gets pants sent to him in the post.
"I have been getting sackfuls of fan mail - and some of it is very bizarre," reveals Nigel. "I've had lots of women saying they want me to take them out for dinner and then do, well, I don't know what! I've had lots of racy underwear sent to me, which I've had to hide from my missus, and I've received some explicit drawings."
Crikey, I'd best have a word with me mother.
He also revealed that his wife "doesn't like me doing the kissing scenes in Corrie." And he says that he was a Corrie fan back when it began half a century ago. He remembers: "I was at prep school back in 1960 when it started and the headmaster was such a fan that we were allowed to watch it. I can't believe that I'm now in the show - it's only taken me 50 years to get here!"
