Likely lad Jason Grimshaw was the resident Street heartbreaker until he was tamed by a feisty lady late last year.
Forever living in the shadow of his much brighter, younger brother Todd, Jason quickly learnt to rely on his good looks to get ahead with the ladies. He started dating Maria Sutherland when he first came to Coronation Street and went on to break her heart by sleeping with infatuated teenager Candice Stowe behind her back.
After living with his mother Eileen for his whole life, Jason was delighted when his father Tony made attempts to get back in touch with him. Within a matter of days, Jason was totally under his fathers spell - working and socialising alongside him.
Sadly for Jason, his father wasnt the hero he thought. When he was taken in by Eileen, Tony robbed her boss Dev Alahan at Streetcars and allowed her to take the blame. It was only when Jason stepped in to confess on his behalf that Eileen got released from prison.
Left without a father figure again, Jason soon found a new mentor in builder Charlie Stubbs. With Charlie helping to guide him, Jason started to settle down and learn a trade. He also spent lots of time studying Charlies treat em mean, keep em keen technique.
And Jason showed his more unpleasant side when his younger brother Todd came out as gay. As Todd struggled to cope, Jason was horrible to him and even slept with his ex-girlfriend Sarah - causing Todd to leave Weatherfield for good. But the experience shook Jason up a bit and he started to re-examine his behaviour.
When he met beautiful barmaid Violet Jason knew he couldnt play games with her. For weeks, Violet kept Jason at arms length until he finally proved he properly loved her. Now the couple are living happily together at Eileens house.
