Simon Gregson could be back filming on the Coronation Street cobbles within weeks.
The 41-year-old actor, who has played Steve McDonald for 26 years, took an extended break from the ITV1 soap last month as he battled illness.
He was notably absent from the Coronation Street live episode, which aired last month, and little detail was given over why he was signed off.
But now it seems he may be preparing to make a return to the cobbles after he was seen for the first time out and about since his break from the soap.
According to The Sun, Gregson was pictured at a farm shop in Prestbury, Cheshire, owned by Charlie Lawson, the actor who plays his on-screen dad Jim McDonald.
‘He is very keen to get back to work and it looks like he is on the mend. He decided to venture out to see Charlie on Friday. He seems like he is doing well,’ a source told the newspaper.
While he’s been allowed as much time off as he needs by soap bosses, this is a sure sign he could well be on the mend and ready to return to work.
Simon’s departure came after his on-screen alter-ego was seen recovering from a severe battle with depression.

Good news Coronation Street fans - Simon Gregson is returning to filming next week.
The actor, who has played Steve McDonald since 1989, took an extended break from the soap last September due to personal reasons.
However, he and co-star Kym Marsh confirmed on Twitter the news that he'll be returning to set and they both seem excited to have each other back.
However, he might not have a very pleasant welcoming party back on the Cobbles, as wife Michelle's first love Will (Waterloo Road star Leon Ockenden) has arrived on the scene.
She's initially hired as his wedding planner, but it won't be long before the pair are reminiscing about their time together as teenagers.
So, who knows what Steve will be returning to.

Coronation Street was hit by filming disruptions this week as actress Beverley Callard was taken ill on Monday (February 29).
Simon Gregson was due to return as Rovers landlord Steve McDonald after a five-month absence, but Callard's sickness put a spanner in the works.
However, despite bosses being forced to scrap two scenes, the Liz McDonald actress is now better and back to work, according to The Sun.
Gregson was due to film his return as Steve, which will see him waltz into the pub during wife Michelle's 40th, after returning from Spain to look for brother Andy, who had a broken leg.
Digital Spy reached out to Coronation Street, who declined to comment.
Thats a lovely family photo. He is cute
Steve with Tim at the cab office could be fun to watch, they both need new best mates with Lloyd gone and Kevin all loved up with Anna and Craig too
Michelle should not be a wedding planner for this couple. I am sure if the woman knew she was his ex girlfriend she would not think it a good idea
Coronation Street star Simon Gregson has reportedly been forced to take sick leave after injuring his shoulder in a fall. :(
The actor, who has played Steve McDonald since 1989, fell off a toy scooter and hurt himself just two weeks after returning from five months off.
According to The Sun, Gregson was out playing with his small children when the accident happened.
The actor previously took an extended break from the soap last September due to personal reasons, but returned to filming last month.
He didn't have the most pleasant welcoming party back on the Cobbles, as wife Michelle's first love Will (Waterloo Road star Leon Ockenden) has arrived on the scene.
