Former Coronation Street star Amanda Barrie says she 'would have been sacked' from the soap if she’d come out in the 80s.
The actress is probably best recognise for playing Alma Halliwell in the ITV soap on and off for 20 years.
In 1967, Amanda married theatre director and actor Robin Hunter but they separated in the mid-1980s and never divorced before his death in 2004.
