Ex-Coronation Street star Tristan Gemmill's dramatic hair transformation stuns fans

Former Coronation Street star Tristan Gemmill stunned Lorraine viewers after he dyed his hair from silver back to black.

The actor, who is best known for playing tragic Robert Preston in the ITV soap, left fans gobsmacked a few years ago when his hair suddenly became grey after his character's stint in prison.

But it looks like he's back to black as he appeared on Lorraine today with his dark locks.

The presenter questioned him on his new look: "You've gone from a silver fox back to the dark hair - for a very good reason!"

He replied: "A couple of people have noticed that, yeah. I just wanted to try something different - for the play I wanted to have a particular look so I've opted for this for the play.

"So who knows? If I like it I may keep it..."

Fans flocked to Twitter to comment on his new look.

One tweeted: "Tristan Gemmill is a very very attractive posh boy. #Lorraine."

While another commented: "Silver fox looks much better ‘used-to-be-Robert’ #Lorraine."

However another was distracted by his accent.

They tweeted: " Erm, since when did he have this posh accent #Lorraine."

*Lorraine airs weekdays at 9am on ITV
