Whyment - Has no interest in celebrity parties

'Coronation Street' star Andy Whyment has said that he has no desire to work in the US and would rather "watch TV" than go to celebrity parties.

The 28-year-old actor told The People: "I'm very happy, and to still enjoy your job after eight years is something special."

"I've always said I'll stay at 'Coronation Street' as long as they'll have me."

"I know a lot of people would jump at the chance to work in America, but I'm just not one of them," he said.

"I don't enjoy the celebrity lifestyle and I don't go to all the awards ceremonies and parties - it's not my cup of tea. I'd rather go home and watch TV with my wife on the sofa."

The couple celebrated the birth of their first child last month.
