He is most famous for his role on popular ITV soap opera Coronation Street, where he took over the role of Nick Tilsley in 1997. The part had previously been played by actor Warren Jackson until 1996 when the character moved to Canada. He left the series in 1999, returning briefly in 2002 and for a longer spell from 2003 to 2004 after which he along with several cast members were sacked after a new producer came to the show. His most famous and controversial storyline was in 2003 when the character of Nick was involved in the series’ first gay kiss with Todd Grimshaw (played by Bruno Langley). Rickitt left Coronation Street in 1999 to start a music career. He signed a six-album deal, although he only released one album - Good Times - in 2000. Rickitt’s first single, I Breathe Again, reached number five in the UK Top Ten, but follow up singles Everything My Heart Desires, and Best Thing only entered the Top Twenty and Top Thirty respectively. The failure of the album (which peaked at No. 41 in the chart) and Rickitt’s disillusionment with the direction of his career led him to abandon pop music. However in 2003, he played Mark Cohen in the musical Rent. Send Adam Rickitt ringtones to your cell |
