Corrie star's attacker avoids jail term
A TEENAGER who broke the jaw of Coronation Street star Mikey North after seeing the actor with his ex-girlfriend has been spared jail.
Stuart Stocks, 19, walked up to Mr North outside a bar in Scarborough town centre and said: "I suppose you think you're big and hard now you're famous," and punched him to the ground before he could reply.

Yesterday, at Scarborough Magistrates' Court, Stocks was sentenced to a 12-month community order with 300 hours' unpaid work for the "unprovoked attack".
