Coronation Street Legend Charlie Lawson Hospitalized After Health Concerns

Former Coronation Street star Charlie Lawson, 64, has been admitted to hospital following concerning health issues that have left him struggling to walk. The actor, best known for playing Jim McDonald in the long-running ITV soap, was initially rushed to hospital after experiencing what he described as something having "gone seriously wrong."

Lawson has since been readmitted to Macclesfield Hospital just days after his original health scare. The actor reported continued difficulty walking and significant pain following two falls. In a health update shared from his hospital bed, Lawson explained that he is currently waiting for further examinations and may potentially be transferred to a specialized spinal unit.

The situation appears to be evolving, with the veteran actor undergoing medical assessment to determine the cause of his mobility issues. Lawson's representatives from Granada TV and the Coronation Street production team have not yet released an official statement regarding his condition.
