Rawtenstall’s very own Sam Aston, beloved by viewers as Chesney Brown in the popular television show *Coronation Street*, recently graced the ice rink with his presence, captivating audiences with his dance performance. Partnered with Molly Lanaghan, a fellow northerner from Doncaster, he brought a unique charm to the stage, creating an entertaining show and the spirit of the event.
The duo’s performance to the lively tune of “Push It” by Salt-N-Pepa was an engaging spectacle. Their attire added a playful touch to the event; they wore colorful outfits, reflecting the fun and energetic vibe of the song. The “Salt-N-Pepa” name was cleverly adapted to suit their northern roots. The jackets sported the words “Chips” and “Gravy,” a nod to their love of fast food and local humor, adding an element of lightheartedness and humor to their act.
Despite facing some challenges, Sam displayed a commendable level of dedication and professionalism. He had taken a week off from rehearsals due to a foot injury, a rather unexpected incident where he tripped over a baby gate, a rather mundane yet relatable mishap. This setback, however, didn’t deter him from delivering a captivating performance.
His commitment extended beyond the ice. Sam sought the assistance of his *Coronation Street* co-star, Andrew Whyment, renowned for his role as Kirk Sutherland, to provide support. Whyment took on the role of DJ, creating an ambiance that complemented Sam and Molly’s dance routine. This collaboration highlights the strong camaraderie and support among the cast of *Coronation Street*.
