Coronation Street actor Johny Dixon has confirmed that he recently finished filming with the ITV soap.

The 21-year-old, who plays the role of unlucky-in-love kebab shop worker Darryl Morton, will disappear from screens next month as his character is written out of the programme.

Speaking to DS on the red carpet at this year's Inside Soap Awards, he said: "I've just left. I just finished the last two weeks or so. There's some good stuff for Darryl coming up for his finish… I don't know what's happening in the future with Darryl or what I'm doing in my career. So far, I've enjoyed working with Corrie, so we'll see what happens."

A Corrie spokesperson said: "The door has been left open for Johnny and Darryl to return in the future."
