Coronation Street fans have been sharing a problem as it was revealed Colson Smith could make the Celebrity Big Brother final. The actor has ditched the cobbles for a few weeks to start in the reboot of the ITV reality show which returned for the first time in six years earlier this month.
Colson, known for playing Craig Tinker in the long-running soap, entered the famous house alongside the likes of broadcaster Fern Britton, Strictly Come Dancing star Nikita Kuzmin and former X Factor judge Louis Walsh.
Following the latest double eviction on Tuesday night (March 19), which saw US theatre star Marisha Wallace and YouTube presenter Zeze Millz get the boot, it was almost assumed that the remaining housemates - Colson, Nikita, Louis, David Potts and Bradley Riches had made it to the final.

Following the show, Colson's friends who are running his social media accounts took to Instagram with their own post which featured a large picture of the 25-year-old's head and said: "Colson Needs You!" Captioning the post, his pals echoed: "Colson Needs You!!
