Obviously it's such a change when any character is recast, but after seeing him with Sophie and Michelle today, he looks more like Michelle's brother than son - and he's only meant to be 20!

The actor is 25, and Kym Marsh is 36.

He's too old.

I think he looks abot 30, the actress playing Michelle looks about 30 as well. In fact i actually think she looks younger than him.

For gods sake

Everyone is different. You can be 16 and look 20 or be 30 and look 18 as looks vary, he suits the role fine.

Let's face it - the anti Corrie brigade will moan regardless

I'm just relieved he's on Corrie & not EE, otherwise we'd have had thirty different threads by now saying how hot he was, how great he was, will he have a scene with Cora, will they bring so-and-so back to do a story with him, should he have had Julia's theme, was there bubbly in his fridge, blah blah blah ...

Awful actor, and again looks way older than the character he's supposed to portraying. The "accident" in the packing department last night was worthy of a 1980s Neighbours plot line.

I wonder if they'll recast the "other" Ryan? or has he been conveniently forgotten?

I wouldn't go as far as saying that he looks 28, he looks 21. But I think this has been a very poor casting for the simple reason that he cannot act!

Those cheesy chat-up lines just made me cringe beyond belief and his over-all acting was completing embarrassing for me to watch!

Surely the actor has watched these episodes and felt the same

And the staged fall in the factory with him trying act like he was injured was also very cringey!
