After seeing the pics, does it mean he's leaving soon or has the actor had another contract signed for another year?

Until the Hat's creepy looking face is tired of looking at him. So forever.

As I mentioned in another thread it doesn't matter if he signed on for another year. Contracts run in 13 week cycles. They can fire him and only have to pay him until the conclusion of that cycle. The contract always favour production, not the performer.

Oh great. Callum's chavvy skinny mates beating up Jason who's got a big build? Please. Jason could take them on easy. And yet another soap cliche; Jason might 'never walk or talk again'.

You act like someone with a big build has never been overpowered or taken down by a group of people.

That's not the case. I'm just saying that Callums scrawny mates are so weedy & pathetic it's actually funny.

They are pathetic. Macca looks like going up a flight of stairs would finish him off and Gemma's a girl

Surely Callum will find some tougher people than them. Maybe he'll take on Jason himself - he'd have the advantage height wise

I think he signed a 1 year contract in October 2014, so not long now hopefully as I'd say Callum is on limited time now.

I really hope Tony does a Jim McDonald, then we can see the back of both characters. Best of both worlds.

these soap clichés really wind me up! its like Hollyoaks with Carmel being scared for life after tanning bed incident and she was scarred for the whole of 5 mins before having surgery to correct it and it never being spoken about again!

I really wouldn't wish Jason's upcoming situation on anyone but we all know he will running about fine the week after!

Well, he nearly snogged his face off in the Rovers a few weeks back, or what seemed like it anyway

Exactly! It was like during the Victoria Court fire 'oh, the emergency services are stuck on the ring road' so the unlikely heroes of the street had to save Amy inside Carla's flat!

Jason didn't seem to mind much about having Callum's face shoved so close to his either

I completely forgot about that! so fire engines don't have priorities in soap land? not like in real life where if we are driving down the road and see or hear a emergency service vehicle you without thinking automatically stop!

its annoying as Soaps go on about "portraying real life" when that couldn't be further from the truth! to paraphrase Joey from Friends "The Truth is a dot to them"

To be fair, Jason may have a big build (being a builder ) but he isn't a confident fighter. Still, a find it pathetic that 'hard man Callum' had to attack Jason with a group of people rather than just himself. What's the matter, Callum? Too scared to face the pretty boy builder on your own?

And don't forget Todd's massive facial scar from he got mugged. Seems to have disappeared lately. Sinead is the only one still on crutches after the mini bus crash, must be the only time Corrie has got an injury right, although she wasn't expected to walk ever again!

I have seen pictures of the extras and actors protraying Callum's henchmen and those guys were far from small and weedy, these guys looked at least over 6ft and 17 stone plus...so its pretty obvious that Jason is a massive threat if Callum needs the heavy mob instead of his usual set of chavvy henchmen such as Gemma.

What you mean the paper cut?

but DH I know what you mean its ridiculous how soaps say they will have "Life Changing Consequences" yet these "Consequences" are for the whole of one episode and everyone is back to normal!

Once he has a one stand with todd and finally discovers his latent homosexuality, we should see him in a taxi rather soon. Or a coffin when Tracey does him in due to jealousy after feeling Callum as taken away her BFF.

Anyone know if Sean ward who plays callum is related to shayne ward? Both are from Manchester and are from irish families.

Who's to say they haven't got a knife...and the element of surprise ?
Also, Ricky Hatton got battered in the local pub and he was world champ at the time...
