Ryan Thomas has wowed fans as he showed off the results of his incredible 12-week body transformation. He's best known for playing Jason Grimshaw in Coronation Street but this week viewers are seeing him in a different role as he competes in a new ITV show.
The actor is among the 12 celebrities competing in The Games. The new series, which began on Monday night (May 9) and airs live on ITV all week, sees Ryan and a few other famous faces battle it out in a sporting spectacular event across a week of live programmes.
The stars have been trained and coached for the events, including diving and weight lifting, for weeks but it all comes down to the live show where the celebrities will rack up points. At the end of the competition, the contestants who receive the most points will be awarded either a gold, silver or bronze medal with one male champion and one female crowned the winners of The Games.
