The Observer did a little profile of Bradley Walsh (who plays Danny Baldwin) and his car, a Vauxhall Signum. Bradley told the paper: "I learnt to drive in 1977 when I was 17 - my nan and granddad lent me the money to get a Mini. I'd souped it up to be like a Mini Cooper, British racing green with red wheels and a racing exhaust. Cars were a big part of who I was then. I used to love cruising around in it, it was just a part of my life, a fashion accessory with bucket seats - and good for attracting the ladies. Since then I've probably had about four Vauxhall Cavaliers - workhorses - two Chrysler jeeps, and Jags and Mercs and Saabs. It's the mileage and the tax implications: you put too many miles on them and they won't be worth a tenner when you sell them. You'd be mad to run them into the ground. All of a sudden I got the job on Coronation Street and you've got to put the mileage in, two or three times a week from the south east to Manchester. You don't need a luxurious car, just to get from A to B in a reliable manner. It's so bloody hectic at this time of year.
If my call on set is at 10 o'clock I have to leave home about six. Vauxhall gave me a call and said, 'Listen, would you like one of ours?' The Signum's excellent, so I said, 'That's great, thank you very much.' Job's done"
