Coronation Street actors have been pictured enjoying a fabulously "footloose" night out as they opted to spend time together as a cast outside of work. Taking to the red carpet at The Opera House Theatre in Manchester, siblings Rebecca and Jack James Ryan posed with their arms around each other ahead of the Footloose musical press night. Also joining the crew was Ellie Leach, 20, who plays Faye Windass on the ITV soap.
'I ate nothing but Asda Smart Price food for a week and it cost less than £50'

As the cost of living crisis continues to soar, many families across the country are being left to figure out how to deal with rising prices.
With the cost of energy bills and food rising, it is understandable why so many are looking for the simplest ways to reduce their bills.
For most families, one of the simplest - and most challenging - ways is on the weekly grocery shop which can help cut down costs and reduce food waste.
However, finding something that will feed the full family - grown-ups and adults - can sometimes prove to be more challenging than the idea of cutting down the bills.
Which is exactly why a Parenting Editor from The Manchester Evening News set herself a challenge of purchasing a full weeks grocery shop for her full family with just Asda Smart Price products.
Emma Gill said that she managed to pick up breakfast, dinner and tea and was surprised to find that the impressive haul came to just under £50.
She said: "Admittedly some of the products were lower quality than we'd usually eat and when it comes to buying things like meat, fish and cheese, it's hard to find healthier alternatives when you've got a tight budget to stick to. Not to mention having to sacrifice free range eggs for the caged hen variety."
Nevertheless, the reporter did find that there were only two items that the family would never purchase again, which were the weak teabags and the poor quality sausages.
While most of the products were bought from the supermarkets budget ranges, Emma did admit that she had to shop in some of the regular priced ranges to make all of the meals work.
Items such as gravy granules, stock cubes and red cabbage to go with the corned beef hash were picked up at the cheapest prices available.
