At the time, he said in a statement: “I have absolutely no memory of what happened because of excessive alcohol consumption and it was for this reason that I behaved completely out of character.

“However, I take full responsibility for my actions that night.”

Gareth Pierce took over the role of Todd Grimshaw last year.

Gareth previously starred in The Archers, where he played Gavin Moss.

However, he also played Karl Sheldon in Ordinary Lies and Lenny Mack in Sky One’s Stella.
