The Daily Mail just called Chester a 'fictional town'

Mail Online ran a story this weekend about the lovelife of ex-Hollyoaks star Jorgie Porter.

It was, of course, prefaced by pictures of the actor in a bikini. So far, so Mail.

But when talking about the actor's eight-year stint on Hollyoaks, the soap set in a fictional suburb of the same name, whoever wrote this picture caption appears to have got their wires crossed, referring to Chester a fictional place instead:

Chester, near Liverpool and the Welsh border, has actually had city status since 1541... as commenters on the story were quick to point out.
