Suranne Jones was forced to give up driving as she battled health issues.
The 43-year-old actress shot to stardom in 2000 with her portrayal of Karen Mcdonald on Coronation Street. Suranne quit Weatherfield in 2004 and has since forged a diverse acting career.
She is currently playing LGBTQ+ icon, Anne Lister, in the critically acclaimed historical drama Gentleman Jack, which returned to our screens last month. The soap star appeared on Angela Scanlon's Thanks A Million podcast earlier this week to talk about her life in showbiz - as Yorkshire Live reports.
