Coronation Street's Sally Ann Matthews dubbed 'mega babe' by co-star as she's supported over fresh challenge

Coronation Street's Sally Ann Matthews has been branded a 'mega babe' by her co-star after she shared the fresh challenge she is taking on following a setback. Back in 2021, the actress became her ITV soap colleagues' 'hero' when she set out to run 50 5ks, raising money for five different charities.

She had set herself the challenge the year before for her 50th birthday despite admitting to 'never being remotely sporty'. But after celebrating her big day, the soap star made the decision to keep running and complete 5km runs to match her age over the following year with the aim to raise £5,000.

She was then later joined by a number of her co-stars outside the Corrie set in Media City, Salford, as she finished her final 5km. And now, Sally is ready for her next challenge.
