Craig Gazey has revealed his parents are more proud of him being in Coronation Street than in the Royal Shakespeare Company. The 26-year-old actor - who plays Graeme Proctor, former cellmate and friend of David Platt in the soap - joked on ITV's Loose Women his family weren't interested in his RSC work. Craig said: "The RSC - my parents thought it was a breakdown service, they didn't have a clue! "Now I'm on Corrie they love it. My mum's always ringing me up and asking, 'Can I have some signed pictures, Doris over the road wants one too'." The soap star revealed he doesn't think his character will end up with Fiz Brown - played by Jennie McAlpine . He said: "I think she is still in love with John. Everything is a bit unrequited at the moment. "I hope Graeme gets a girlfriend. I'd like him to have a really chavvy girlfriend with big gold earrings and a tracksuit."
