Bill Fellows, a Coronation Street star, revealed the kind present his co-stars gave him after he left the show.
In 2021, Fellows made his debut as Stu Carpenter in the ITV series. The actor was supposed to record his final scenes as Stu earlier this month, but details of his leave are still unknown.
Fellows posted a picture of himself on Instagram along with words from the actors.

“Nice parting [gift] with a top quality bottle of Champagne,” he captioned the image posted earlier this week.
His Corrie pals flocked to the comment section to wish him well in his new endeavours, including Cait Fitton, who plays Lauren Bolton, who wrote: “We will miss you !!!”
Mollie Gallagher and Elle Mulvaney, who portray Nina Lucas and Amy Barlow respectively, also shared sweet messages for Fellows, telling him they will miss him on set.
“All of the very best darl. It was an absolute pleasure working with you on the cobbles.
Go smash it love xx,” was Lauren Neelan star Kel Allan’s message.
Fellows’ last scenes as Stu are set to air later this year.
The soap star isn’t the only Corrie cast member to leave the cobbles behind as both Peter Ash and Helen Worth are due to bow out at some point in the coming months.
Ash’s character Paul Foreman was previously diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease (MND), with the storyline coming to a sad conclusion in upcoming episodes. As for Worth, the Gail Rodwell soap icon is also departing the show after 50 years.
