Coronation Street's Bobby actor supported by co-stars as he celebrates major recognition away from cobbles

Coronation Street star Jack Carroll has been supported by his co-stars as they watched him celebrate a major recognition away from the cobbles.

Viewers will know that the actor and comedian joined the ITV soap earlier this year as Bobby, the nephew of Weatherfield favourite Carla Connor.

The son of Rob Donovan, who is currently serving life in prison for the murder of Tina McIntyre, showed up at Carla's flat much to her surprise and after speaking with her imprisoned sibling, Rob explained he was unaware he had a son until recently but hadn’t managed to let Carla know.

Bobby has since made himself comfortable living with his auntie and landed himself a job at her factory, Underworld. However, he's recently been wrapped up in finding out what has happened to new love interest Lauren Bolton after she suddenly disappeared with the case now a murder probe that Bobby has misguidedly influenced with a false statement, back by Carla.
