One of the Crown Prosecution Service's top prosecutors has denied there is a "celebrity witch-hunt" after Corrie actor Michael Le Vell was cleared of child sex abuse charges. Le Vell's colleagues have talked of their delight at his acquittal.
Former Coronation Street actor Kevin Kennedy told This Morning he was "delighted" that Michael Le Vell had been cleared of child sex charges, but stressed, "This whole thing is a tragedy."
"There are no winners in this," Kennedy, who played Curly Watts in the soap, said. "Yes, Michael got his freedom and I'm very pleased about that, but no one benefits from this - I think it should never have got to this stage in the first place."
When asked what the trial has done to his friend, Kennedy said: "I think the damage is immeasurable, and it's going to take time... Once he's got over the elation of his liberty given back to him, there's going to be a time where he's going to sit down and he's going to have to heal."
