Sam’s in for a Poundland

The actor, who played Adam Barlow in Coronation Street and is Flynn in E4’s Beaver Falls, will join a family fun day on Saturday to mark the opening of Poundland.

In the new E4 series, Sam’s character Andrew Spencer, also known as Flynn, is romantically involved with 44-year-old Irishwoman, Alison Doody, who stars as Pam. Sam is also well-known for playing Adam Barlow, son of Susan Barlow and Mike Baldwin, in the Granada Television soap from 2004.

On Saturday he will be posing for photographs with fans, signing autographs, and handing out vouchers.

The day will include games and entertainment, with balloons and sweets to be given away for children.

The store opens its doors today.
