In last week's Coronation Street, we saw Marc the tranvestite turn up in the bar where he bumped into Audrey.
And in that scene, ex-farmer Kenneth Prestidge was cast as Marc's transvestite friend. Kenneth, who is also known as Justine, said: 'I'm thrilled to get a part in the show but it will be like home from home to me. When I'm working I'm a gruff, scruffy farmer in green wellies, but when I go out I get proper glammed up with my Christian Louboutins - I have 15 or 16 pairs."
Kenneth got the part after taking acting classes when food-and-mouth disease forced him to sell off his previous stock cows. He told the Daily Mail: 'I've got 50 own-bred Dairy Shorthorns that I milk myself. I love living a double life - it's two sides to my character. But I'm keen to make Corrie a regular thing and became a well-known Corrie star.'
Kenneth was full of praise for the cast and crew of Corrie, and said: 'Corrie is just like a little family. They're lovely. I've never been on such a nice set. He said: "'Sue Nichols is a real lady, the most wonderful person I've ever met. She treated me like a son. She was wonderful. She treated me like a member of her family. What I love about the Corrie stars is that they're not big-headed at all.'Check out Justine's website here and view the clip of Justine n Corrie below.
