Let's make this birthday one to remember.

43 years old (Born on August 12, 1982)

Happy Birthday, Alan! Another year older and still fixing cars on Coronation Street—honestly, Tyrone Dobbs must have the most reliable garage in Britain by now. Your comedic timing and heartfelt performances have made us laugh, cry, and occasionally shout at the telly. From your hilarious mishaps to those unforgettable romantic dramas, you've truly given us some classic Corrie moments.

Here's hoping your birthday is filled with fewer soap opera disasters than Tyrone's love life! Keep bringing joy to our screens; after all these years, you're still everyone's favourite mechanic. Cheers to another fantastic year ahead—may it be drama-free (well...mostly)!
