Coronation Street’s Antony Cotton takes on Ben Nevis for a good cause

Antony Cotton stopped by the Lorraine studio this morning to tell us all about his upcoming Ben Nevis expedition with eight-year-old Alfie McAnespie, in aid of Help For Heroes.

Alfie got in contact with Antony via Twitter to ask if he would complete the ascent with him and the soap star soon signed up!

Even though I can’t believe I’m saying this, I’m looking forward to it!

Watch the full interview above, including an emotional good luck message from Alfie’s dad.
