The 23-year-old actor, who is dating actress Kaya Scodelario, thanked the show for introducing him to his girlfriend: "Plus if it wasn't for Shameless I wouldn't of met the love of my life @kScodders :) for that I owe them everything. I miss you beautiful x"

Coronation Street actress Natalie Gumede, who played Kirsty Soames on the ITV soap, wrote: "Caught the last ever #Shameless on +1. Congrats cast and crew on 11 years! An amazing feat. Take a bow @Rattersbatt! Now...Onwards! #exciting"

Set on a fictional council estate in Manchester, the show also starred Dean Lennox Kelly, Tina Malone, Maxine Peake and Chris Bisson.
