He added: "Celebrated with drinks in the hot tub but Roberta thought it would be funny to remove my swimming shorts from the suitcase. Thanks @dolly_rose_campbell for lending me your spare cossie. I think I rocked it tbf."

Several of Calum's 'Corrie' co-stars sent their congratulatory messages in the comments section of his post.

Calum recently admitted that he admitted that he was nearly “homeless” during the COVID-19 lockdown as the television industry shut down amid the pandemic.

He told the ‘Me, Myself and Hopefully You…?’ podcast: "Most actors, despite being professional actors, you still have to have a job to do, between jobs. Unless you're in the top one per cent. It's a hustle. That's what a lot of theatre actors struggle with. They love theatre, but it only pays enough to cover your rent while in you're in the job...You've then got to go back to waiting tables."
