Simon Gregson: Coronation Street star addresses first teenage kiss on-set 'She was 24'

Simon Gregson has been a firm fixture on Coronation Street since he made his ITV debut over three decades ago. The Steve McDonald actor has since opened about the moment he had to lock lips with an actress on the Weatherfield set who was nine years older than him at the time.

The 46-year-old was joined by his co-stars Jack P Shepherd and Sair Khan on The Big Soap Quiz.

The trio went head-to-head with the cast of Emmerdale on the ITV quiz show.

Simon left host Stephen Mulhern stunned after he brought up the age difference between himself and his Corrie co-star.

Stephen told viewers: “This is Simon’s first ever Corrie kiss back in 1990.”

When Simon confirmed he’d been on the soap for 33 years, Jack replied: “I’m 33.”

Taking a cheeky swipe at the legendary soap star, Stephen asked: “So when you were born, you came into Weatherfield. How does that make you feel?”

Simon appeared unimpressed with the jibe, as he chimed: “Like, I want to go now.”

Meanwhile, his co-star Jack revealed he has stolen a “Newton and Ridley” bottle opener from the Corrie set.
