CORONATION Street fans all found their hands turning by show legend Roy Cropper’s incredible get up during the latest episode.
Show viewers labelled him a ‘fashion icon’ thanks to his impressive outfit to attend his bat-watching group session.
He sported a beanie hat
Fans loved Roy’s look
Roy, played by David Neilson, wore a grean beanie hat in a deaputre from his usualy style of attire.
He added to his look with a white shirt that was kept in place by a patterned thermal jumper.
The cafe owner topped off his look with a more typical Roy item of a beige coat with a brown collar.
Prepared for all eventualities at the woods for his bat-watching session, Roy could be seen clutching two more coats as well as plenty of essential supplies for the outing.
Fans were loving Roy’s look and were quick to praise the outfit online.
One person wrote: “Aww Roy in his woolly hat and little flask, he’s prepared…”
Another added: “Roy is the David Attenborough of #corrie.”
A third impressed fan commented: “Rocking that Beanie Roy! He is the fashion icon of Corrie!”
With a fourth writing: Anyone else digging Roy’s vibe for this bat hunt?”
There was shock among the characters during tonight’s edition of the ITV soap after Nina, played by Mollie Gallagher, got into difficulty while frantically searching for a missing Roy.
Roy was left wandering a lonely woodland area after being unaware the bat group’s New Year meeting had been called off.
Unable to contact him by any means, Nina insisted that she, Brian and Asha must head off to the woodland that Roy had already set off to and tell him the news in person.
Upon arrival, Roy was nowhere to be seen causing panic amongst the trio as they sauntered through the trees.
As night began to fall, things took a devastating turn for the worst.
Much to the viewer’s terror, Nina spotted Roy’s flask, which he had earlier dropped in the lake, floating on the water and fearing that he had drowned, Nina headed down to the water’s edge where she took a terrifying tumble.
As she fell, she rolled rapidly down the bank, hitting her head in the process before being left unconscious in the water.
