Coronation Street waxwork gets makeover

Coronation Street’s legendary blonde barmaid Bet Lynch has had a makeover – and up to 2,000 people a day are turning up to see her. 

The Daily Express says that the ever-popular Rovers Return landlady looked like her ugly sister or somebody’s granny in dowdy silver wig and dull clothes at the old Louis Tussauds ­Waxworks in Blackpool. Now after a five-month shutdown and a £100,000 revamp by London-based Madame Tussauds Bet, who was played by Julie Goodyear, is back to her best in trademark blonde ­beehive and red lipstick. 

It's also said that there'll be Ken and Deirdre Barlow waxworks and let's hope these two favourite Corrie characters have had their waxworks made over too.
