Coronation Street star Kym Marsh has welcomed the news that Chris Fountain is to join the soap's cast in the New Year.
Last month, it was announced that Fountain had been cast in the role of Jack Duckworth's grandson Tommy, who will turn up on the cobbles in March.
Writing in her New magazine column, Marsh confirmed that she already knows the star because of the work he did on Hollyoaks with her fiancé Jamie Lomas.
The actress, who plays Michelle Connor, commented: "We're all pleased to welcome Chris Fountain to Corrie."
She added: "Chris was great as Justin Burton in Hollyoaks and I'm sure he'll be equally successful on Corrie. Jamie knows him well, so I've met him many times - he's a really nice guy."
Tommy will be unaware of Jack's recent passing when he arrives on screen in 2011.
