Jack P Shepherd cringes over high-pitched old Corrie episodes on Loose Women

The actor appeared on the ITV Daytime panel show alongside his co-stars Colson Smith and Ben Price to promote the 6th series of their hit podcast, Sofa Cinema Club.

But the actor was left cringing at the end of his interview when he was reminded how long he has appeared on the soap.

Jack has played the role of Gail's son, David Platt in the soap since 2000 and when he was asked about his the duration of his time on the Salford set, he was left red faced.

The 34 year-old is one of the longest serving cast members on the set of the soap, first debuting at the age of 12, and when asked by Linda Robson, 64, about trying to beat William Roache's record, Jack couldn't help but laugh at the suggestion.

William Roache has played Ken Barlow since the soap's inception in December of 1960 and is the only original cast member left on the long-running serial drama.

But Jack was still reflective of his time, saying: "He's 66. [It's been] 20 or 22 years now, Yeah quite long, quite a long time. I think they're like showing repeats of Corrie now aren't they? Of me just sort of starting"

He added: "I think they're up to that sort of decade of like early 2000's where I'm just sort of coming out."

But the actor also revealed that when the repeats of the noughties episodes of the soap are aired on TV, his friends message him mocking his young age and voice which left him cringing.

The 34-year-old actor explained: "People sort of messaging me saying "I was fully watching like your little high pitch voice, your high pitched Yorkshire accent", as he laughed with the rest of the panel and his co-stars.
