There's a good interview in today's Mirror with Sam Aston, who celebrates 10 years as Chesney Battersby-Brown on Coronation Street.

Sam is 19 now so here's a picture of him when he first started on the Street as a cute 9 year old.

In the interview, Sam talks about dealing with being on TV, the current Katy storyline, saving his money and being an "old soul".  He says he rarely gets chatted up and: "I certainly don’t get sent underwear in the mail like Ryan Thomas.”  Woah there. Too much information.

Sam also says he's got no plans to leave Corrie and he's dead happy working there. Read the interview here.
