Coronation Street fans were cringing over an awkward but classic soap moment.
Viewers were 'second hand embarrassed' for Jenny Bradley who had already been feeling uncomfortable about the age gap between herself and her new younger man Leo Thompkins.
The Rovers Return barmaid was summoning the courage to dump Leo when she was told he had been injured playing rugby.

She rushed to A&E to be by his side but got a bigger shock when she arrived.
Also in the waiting room was an old school pal who confessed over coffee that he had harboured a crush on her.
Not wanting to lose his chance with Jenny again he asked her out, just as Leo emerged after having stitches to his head.
And jaws dropped when it turned out that the man Jenny was talking to was Leo's dad.
As they were awkwardly introduced he confessed to his son that he had just asked her on a date, saying: "We were at school together in same year.
"I had a massive crush on her back in the day. I've just asked her out."
And when Leo jokingly told him to 'back off' he said: "You have got very good taste in women, I'll give you that."
Corrie fans took to Twitter to voice their embarrassment.
@Sean__McLachlan said: "The second hand embarrassment has just smacked me around the chops."
@Jazzypap exclaimed: "Awkward or what!!"
