Adam Thomas' amazing gesture for fan who flew hundreds of miles to meet him

Adam Thomas has warmed hearts after sharing about a kind gesture for a fan who flew hundreds of miles to meet him.

The Manchester actor was sad that he didn't get to meet the fan, who had travelled all the way from Devon to Manchester in the hope of seeing him while dining at his restaurant The Spinn in Gatley for her 15th birthday.

But former Emmerdale and Waterloo Road star Adam was stunned when he bumped into the girl next day at the Trafford Centre while he was shopping with his son Teddy.
