Good on John for speaking out, something that it seems not many do when it comes to Antony. I bet he's made some peoples' lives Hell over the years. :mad:
EX-CORRIE star John Thomson has branded Antony Cotton a "nasty piece of work".
Thomson, who played Jesse Chadwick in the soap until last year, said the Street favourite was difficult to work with and claimed he was "trouble with a capital T".
The sensational outburst came after Cotton was accused of acting like a diva in the jungle.
Former Cold Feet and Fast Show star Thomson waded into Cotton — knicker stitcher Sean Tully in the soap — on his Twitter page.
He tweeted: "Antony you nasty piece of work you are doing yourself no favours." And: "Antony Cotton — the truth will out!!
Asked by @sinanny84: "You worked with Antony on Corrie. Was he like this when you worked with him?"
Thomson's response was: "Trouble with a capital T."
Another follower tried to excuse his behaviour, tweeting: "He's not coming across as a nice person at all. But in that situation it probably does push you to the limit."
Thomson responded he didn't behave like that on punishing TV show 71 Degrees North. He tweeted: "No excuse, I didn't turn on any one in Norway."
He added: "Antony just go. Do us all a favour." And he retweeted: "Antony Cotton. What a Miserable old fadge. Time he left the jungle."

I would be embarassed to like that.:(
John Thomson - thank goodness he's not afraid to speak his mind. It must be really bad working with such a diva and the thing is he's not really acting either - sounds like he's that way all the time.
Alan Clarke's Diaries anyone?;)
Trick is, filtering through all the crap on there.
I watched 71 degrees, but I don't remember thomson coming out of it particularly bad
Yes I sniggered too. He completely stressed out and upset many of the others when he wouldn't contribute in putting the tent up because he was having an almighty paddy.
Also AC was shown for what he was on that singing show he did - he was a total diva on that and ITV then gave him his own (now defunct) show so they obviously like this side of him!
He's got a job for life there.........I always think, it's not who you know, it's what you know about who you know.....
Wouldn't necessarily disagree, just think JT should rise above attacking people on Twitter from massively edited highlights packages and who cannot defend themselves. Would have thought a fellow showbiz colleague would realise this.
No doubt there is history there, they have after all worked together.
Why would it cost him his job? Especially if he did go on to win.
He should seriously think about his own actions..from this post john thomson sounds as charming as anthony cotton.
Ummmm yes I remember him being rather nasty and sulking during one task? Didn't he refuse to help the girls dig or something.
Obviously needed to see his name in the tabloids so decided now was the time to 'out' Anthony's bad behaviour.
Sad little man. (And I'm no massive fan of Anthony either)
Also, when was he in Corrie? I admit i only dip into it now and again, but I don't remember seeing him at all. He'll always be Fat Bob to me, anyway:D
I was thinking maybe he's being ironic because it would be a tad hypocritical otherwise.
Exactly - he must know something otherwise they'd get rid of him
