Sally Lindsay has been a familiar face on British telly for years, with roles in Coronation Street, Still Open All Hours, and her latest hit, The Madame Blanc Mysteries. But while she’s now known for her sharp wit and northern charm, her journey to TV success wasn’t exactly smooth.
Before the soap fame, Sally actually dreamed of working in radio. While studying at Hull University, she hosted her own show and had her heart set on becoming a radio journalist. But despite her talent, she was told her accent was “too northern” to make it on air, reported Belfast Live.
