Emmerdale’s most epic of love stories kicks off this week. True, it’s hardly Casablanca or Titanic, but the story of Katie and Andy will keep us busy for at least the next 15 years or so. (Or merely seven years with good behaviour at Classic Emmerdale broadcast pace.) It all begins when Andy is caught selling knock-off fags at school (we told you it was romantic) and thrown into detention. But it turns out that life in the old sin bin is about to get a whole lot brighter, as the angelic form of Katie Addyman floats into view.

Which is not an easy task, given that Nancy has suffered two previous miscarriages herself. “It’s a very difficult line for Nancy to walk,” Jess tells us. “As usual, she’s having to do it all by…

However, on numerous occasions this nearly wasn’t the case, as Sally explains that she was no stranger to the Street’s casting directors prior to landing her dream role… “I must have auditioned 40-odd times and had about 10 screen tests – though it could have been more,” shares the former Shameless star. “I tried out for characters such as Shona Ramsay and Kate Connor, which I obviousy didn’t get and I can see why. “One of the reasons why I became an actress was because of Corrie – and particularly because of Barbara Knox [aka Rita], who I think is phenomenal,” adds Sally. “I see the Coronation Street…
