Keith Duffy has said that he enjoyed his time on Coronation Street and has told show bosses that he would consider a return to the soap.

The singer-actor made the comments before he joined his Boyzone bandmates onstage at their recent Wembley Arena concert, PA reports.

Duffy said: "I loved it up there. I loved the Northerners!"

He also praised producers for choosing stars who haven't gone through the stage school system and cited the success of former Hear'Say singer Kym Marsh, who plays Michelle Connor in the series.

"Kym's done really well. She's had a really tough life, having two kids at a very young age which is never easy," he said.

"Stage school pupils have a certain way of acting, but it's also good to show real emotion from real-life experiences."
