JUST 24-hours after rubbing shoulders with the rich and famous, Corrie's Chesney Brown was back in Rossendale to draw a raffle for a pensioners' party in Bacup.
Sam Aston, who plays cheeky Chesney in the hit ITV soap, had been partying in London on Monday night after scooping the prestigious Best Soap Newcomer prize at the TV Quick Awards.
But dedicated to his word Sam made the 300-mile trip home to attend the pensioner's annual event.
Held last night at Bacup Leisure Hall in Burnley Road, Sam, was back on home turf to help bring a ray of sunshine into the pensioners' evening.
It was organised by Bacup ward councillor Jimmy Eaton. He said: "I am a good friend of the Aston family and asked if Sam could do it for us as the pensioners all love him."
