CORONATION Street legend Charlie Lawson has exploded with rage at a thief who stole from his doorstep.
The 61-year-old actor, who played Jim McDonald, posted an extraordinary tirade on Twitter roaring: “If I catch you I’ll rip yer friggin arms off!!!!”
Charlie’s breakfasts have been turned into a nightmare by a dairy-swiping robber who has been talking his morning milk from his doorstep in Prestbury, Cheshire.
He spoke directly to the thief on Twitter saying: “To the little s***t in our village @PrestburyParish who keeps nicking our milk, missed you by a whisker this morning!
“Be real careful, if I catch you I’ll rip yer friggin arms off!!!!”
He seemed to have calmed down a little later in the day, telling one follower he’d have make the robber a brew if only they’d asked.
He explained: “Makes me angry. As someone said, knock on me door and if you’re that desperate, I’ll do you a cup of tea meself!!”
Northern Irish Charlie is best known for playing hot-headed Charlie in Corrie – and it didn’t escape fans that the tirade was just what the character would have said.
One fan replied: “This is something like Jim would say! Hope you catch the little rascal.”
Charlie first appeared in Coronation Street in 1989, appearing as a regular character until 2000 and making several extended guest appearances on the cobbles until 2018.
