The group – including Jane Danson, Colson Smith, Alison King, Rob Mallard, Chris Gascoyne, Georgia Taylor and Julia Goulding – beamed as they smiled for the shot.

Jack, who was holding a fluorescent ball, captioned the photo: “Jane Danson absolutely kicked all our a**es!”

Jane was quick to reply to Jack’s comment, saying: “Such fun loved it!”

Julia wrote: “She really did and you tried ever so hard too.”

Georgia added: “She slayed.”

While Millie Gibson, who plays Kelly Neelan, shared: “Bunch of losers @realjanedanson.”

Jack made his Coronation Street debut as a young David at 12 years old.

The actor has remained on the soap for the past 22 years, with David being a dad to teenage boy Max.

Despite being on the soap for over two decades, Jack has no plans to leave Corrie anytime soon.

Speaking to Inside Soap about his future on the cobbles, he said: “I suppose Max is getting the storylines that I used to get as a kid, and I’m sort of playing out Gail’s storylines now.

“But what an amazing achievement to be turning into Gail because she’s one of the best-loved characters in the whole show.

“She’s second on the all-time amount of episode counts, just behind Bill Roache, which is great. So, to be compared to Gail is a huge honour in my eyes.”

Jack went on to admit that he loves working alongside the Corrie stars and crew.

“It’s the people, as boring as that sounds,” Jack added.

“If you like the people you work with and they make you laugh, you come away thinking, ‘That was fun, let’s do it again tomorrow’.

“It’s only when you’re unhappy at work that you leave, and I’m not. I’ve always really got on with everyone I work with, and the show still gives me good stories so I’d be silly to leave!”
