Coronation Street actor finds 4ft royal python on toilet seat
A Coronation Street actor said he was left "dreaming of snakes" after he found a 4ft (1.2m) royal python sitting on his toilet seat.
Harry Visinoni, who plays Seb Franklin in the TV soap, went to brush his teeth on Saturday when he saw the reptile "staring at him" in his home in Hale.
It is thought the snake had slithered off from its previous owner and into a wall cavity, said the RSPCA.
The charity has named it Lulu, which it said seemed "appropriate".
After seeing the reptile curled up in his bathroom, Mr Visinoni ran out and called for his girlfriend Ellie Isaac.
Opening the door briefly, the couple "watched as the snake then slithered on to the top of the toilet and sat on the seat just staring at us".
After discussing what they should do, they returned but found the python had disappeared.
The pair then spent a "sleepless" night "dreaming about snakes", before calling the RSPCA in the morning.
Animal rescue officer Sonia Hulme arrived and eventually located the snake behind the bathroom radiator.
