Coronation Street star misses major event after falling 'violently ill'
- Craig Charles, the Coronation Street actor, was forced to pull out of the London Film and Comic Con on July 6, 2025, after falling violently ill in London.
- Event organisers initially cited a family emergency for his absence, but after receiving no response to repeated attempts at his hotel room around 11:30 am, they later disclosed that he was unwell.
- Despite his absence due to illness, the other Red Dwarf cast members—Danny John-Jules, Robert Llewellyn, and Hattie Hayridge—proceeded with the meet and greet and group photo, while fans showed their support for Charles.
- Ticket holders were automatically given a £60 refund to account for the altered lineup, while Charles expressed his regret to Showmasters and the attendees at Comicon, explaining his illness prevented him from attending.
- Charles stated he is drinking water and electrolytes, feels slightly better, looks forward to next time, and announced he will attend no more events this summer and autumn due to his health.
