It doesn t matter what it is, but that s what you have to do – you have to pull on your own experiences and that s what I did. I did it as best as I could. You have to have empathy for anyone who has ever been in that situation and compare it to something that is precious to you and how you d feel if it was gone.

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 7.30pm on ITV.
Anyone who has witnessed or experienced a hate crime is urged to call the police on 101, Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 or visit the True Vision website. In an emergency, always dial 999.
