Corrie fans in stitches as Chesney channels Donald Trump

We preferred you before, Ches!

Coronation Street viewers were laughing their socks off last night after Chesney Brown suffered an embarrassing fake tan fail.

In fact, as if walking around with a face as orange as his hair wasn’t excruciating enough, the poor lad was even compared to Donald Trump!

That’s a bad day in Weatherfield for fan fave Chesney…

Comparisons to the unpopular US President came after Emma convinced Chesney to have a spray tan…

And, in a comedy gold moment typical of playful Corrie, things didn’t go according to plan.

In fact, Ches was left looking like an overripe tangerine.

Naturally, the punters in the Rovers Return were quick to tease the Prima Doner worker and compared him to orang-utan-coloured Trump.

Jenny compared him to the former reality star turned politician, calling him “an ickle likkle Donald Trump”.

And those watching from home were quick to join in with the banter too!

One laughing fan wrote a little poem: “Chesney had a spray tan, Emma thinks he’s fit, And that he looks quite sexy, A little like Brad Pitt, Chesney isn’t quite convinced, And seems he’s got the hump, Jenny reckons he looks like A little Donald Trump.”

One defended Chesney, saying: “Chesney has better hair than the Donald.”

However, one took it a tad more seriously, wondering: “Why is Emma trying to change Chesney?”

Fans were also worried for Chesney as dodgy Spike had it in for him, and fans cried at their TV to stick with Emma and not ditch her for Gemma.

Viewers know that Chesney’s spent weeks trying to make Gemma jealous with Emma, taking her on dates and rubbing it in Gemma’s face that he’s got a girl.

Although Gemma is with Spike, it’s clear that Chesney’s flirtation with Emma IS making her jealous…

Will the pair ever get it together?
