Coronation Street's Alex Bain has shared a photo in a rare Instagram post - and one of his co-stars was quick to tease him.
Alex has played Simon Barlow on the cobbles for thirteen years.
Lancashire-born Alex, 20, doesn't post on social media very often, but recently shared a photo with his many followers.

Captioning the post, he said: "It’s a rare occasion when I post a photo of myself so enjoy… also do you want to see more of this ugly mug? [cry-laughing emoji]"
Fellow Corrie star Jack James Ryan, who plays gang member Jacob Hay in the soap, was quick to comment.
Jack said: "Get that ugly mug off my timeline", to which Alex replied: "sozzles I shall snap it out of existence with immediate effect [cry-laughing emojis]."
Alex's girlfriend Mollie Lockwood also commented on the post, making a loving declaration.
She said: "I always love seeing your face"
A smitten Alex replied: "Not as much as I love seeing your beautiful face."
Alex split from his childhood sweetheart Levi Selby - with whom he shares a daughter - in 2019, and has since found love with Mollie.
The Corrie actor has posted many loved up snaps of the pair on his Instagram.
Commenting on one post, Mollie said: "Aww I miss you my squish you're my world."
Fans called them "couple goals" and a "cute pair".
