Coronation Street's Jack P Shepherd 'bins' Tina O'Brien from WhatsApp group

WhatsApp groups are either a great way of staying in touch or just a complete notification nightmare.

But Tina O'Brien won't have to worry about being bothered by her co-stars too much has she has been ditched from the group chat.

The Coronation Street actress has been 'binned' from her on-screen family's WhatsApp group by Jack P Shepherd.

The 32-year-old David Platt actor confessed his brutal dumping on This Morning as the daytime show went behind the scenes on the Corrie cobbles.

This week, viewers will see Sarah Platt prepare to marry Adam Barlow and ditch her iconic family name.

So Jack, who has worked with Tina for more than 20 years, knew what he had to do.

He joked: "We have a Platts WhatsApp group and I've binned her from the group because she's no longer a Platt."

Brutal.

The cast also revealed some filming secrets, including how they keep entertained on set during long days.

"There's a lot of people with books, a lot of people asleep, on iPads, people bring sweets and chocolate biscuits," Jack said.

And one cast member thought completely out of the box.

He added: "Si Gregson [Steve McDonald] has brought in laser quest. That's good."
