Coronation Street star Charlie de Melo had just the right outfit to wear as he headed to turn on Christmas lights with his soap co-stars at a Gay Village institution at the weekend.
For Charlie impressed friends and fans with his rather fabulous rainbow coloured kilt as he joined his Corrie co-stars for the annual switch-on event at the Village's legendary New York New York bar.
Jauntily carrying a festive candy cane and striking a pose, Charlie endeared himself to fans with his sweet festive message too.
