And now Mick has been sent to prison for murdering Craig Tinker earlier this year, he's confirmed his time on the show is over.
Commenting to a fan who said: "I swear to god that better be Mick's last scene. #Corrie," the soap star replied: "Affirmative. Loved my time on the cobbles!"
The actor's final scenes played out after a failed prison break that saw Mick banged up for good.
In Wednesday's episode he made one final appearance from prison to speak to son Brody.
Brody told his dad he would get the girls and they'd move to be near whatever prison he ended up.
But in a chilling scene, Mick turned on Brody and disowned him.
'You finished? Because I'll be honest lad, all I hear is a lot of whining. You seriously think I want to see you again after all of this?
'And don't you dad me. Don't you dare call me that ever again. Ever again, do you hear me? I'm not your dad and I never was.
'You think I want to see you? Have you come visit me? Don't make me laugh. You or the girls. Or your mum. Any of you.
'But especially you Brody because the others, at least they're family but you are nothing to me.

'The one good thing to come from this is not having you as a son anymore. You're his, and that disgusts me. You disgust me and I…'
Mick put the phone down, hid it under his bed as the guards opened the door to him.
Head in his hands, that was Mick's final appearance on Coronation Street.

It comes as The Masked Singer star was replaced by Caroline Waldegrave as a judge alongside Paul Hollywood on the latest series of the Stand Up 2 Cancer Celebrity Bake Off specials, which left fans concerned. Earlier this week, Prue appeared on ITV's Lorraine to speak about her role as guest chef at Wilderness Festival in Oxfordshire this month, as she prepares to head a banquet for hundreds of people. A post shared by Dame Prue Leith (@prueleith) But she also addressed her future on Bake Off and explained: 'I keep being asked if I'm leaving. 'This is because I left the celebrity [version]. I stopped doing that last year because I just hadn't had a holiday in the summer for eight years. I've only given up Celebrity [Bake Off]." Confirming she is still a huge part of the original baking show, described as 'mother of them all', Prue added: 'I still do The Great American Bake Off, which we are filming at the moment, and I still do The Great British Bake Off, which I love, and is the mother of them all." Revealing why the 85-year-old has no plans on going anywhere just yet, Prue commented: "It's the best job in telly. It's absolutely the best job in telly, I don't have to learn lines, I don't have to have a script. I don't have to rehearse. I just walk on and eat cake."
