Let's make this birthday one to remember.

50 years old (Born on October 02, 1974)

Happy Birthday, Simon Gregson! Another year older and still rocking the cobbles as Coronation Street's beloved Steve McDonald. From your hilarious taxi-driving escapades to those unforgettable romantic mishaps, you've kept us laughing (and occasionally crying) for decades.

Whether it's pulling off comedic timing with unmatched flair or navigating dramatic storylines effortlessly, you truly are Weatherfield’s finest export—aside from Betty's hotpot of course! Here's hoping this birthday brings fewer on-screen disasters and more real-life celebrations.

Cheers to another fantastic year ahead filled with laughter, success, and perhaps a little less drama than poor Steve usually endures. Have an amazing day!
