We love a good old celebrity slanging match. So when we saw that Coronation Street stars Anthony Cotton, Jack P. Shepherd and Ryan Thomas were embroiled in what seemed like a Twitter feud we were excited!
Anthony had a dig at Jack and Ryan after they accused him of name-dropping – the Rovers barman even went so far as to call Jack “a little irritant”! Ooh, bitchy! We like.
However, Anthony has tweeted again to assure everyone that the comments were all made in jest, “Slow news day today obvs,” Anthony has written on the micro-blogging site. “Breaking news!!! @ryanjamesthomas @JackPShepherd88 and I have a sense of humour. I know!!! Outrageous!!!"
Anthony then continued to make a joke about the whole situation being blown out of proportion, “But seriously though. I called @ryanjamesthomas and @JackPShepherd88 to my office first thing this morning and they issued this statement – ‘We apologise unreservedly to the old boot. We promise to make him cups of tea whenever he wants’. I was unavailable for comment.”
At least this means there won’t be any awkwardness in the Corrie canteen.
