An ITV icon has confirmed she's joining Corrie as undertaker George Shuttleworth's 'fun and sassy' sister Glenda. She says she's dreamed of joining Coronation Street ever since she was young, and now her wishes have all come true.
Jodie Prenger, who became a BBC icon when she won reality show ‘I’d do Anything’ and then starred in the stage play of iconic ITV drama Fat Friends, will appear on the cobbles from August. The 43-year-old actress started filming with the soap this week.
Her 'fun and sassy' character will be joining the street fresh from a cruise ship. But it won't be long before she finds her feet behind the bar of the Rovers.
