Long running soap Coronation Street has tackled some diverse and topical subjects over the years, but its latest episode has been hailed as one of its 'best episodes in ages'. At the heart of the storyline was stalwart character Audrey Roberts, played by actress Sue Nicholls.
The show, which aired on Monday, August 16, 2022, saw Audrey confront her mental health issues and come clean to friends about a recent suicide attempt. Audrey shared the devastating news during an afternoon tea with friends Rita, Ken, Roy and Claudia.
Fans soon showed their thoughts on the episode and the topic. One person writing on Twitter said: "Who wrote tonight’s #Corrie cos it was the best written episode in a long time X" to which a fellow fan replied: "Absolutely brilliant episode - a master class by the old guard and a classic #Corrie episode".
