Sue Johnston hopes to start filming on Corrie next month

There's an update in today's Sun about actress Sue Johnston who should have made her Coronation Street debut as St Ella's mother earlier this month but the scenes were scrapped after she became ill.

Fortunately, the paper reports that Sue is now on the mend and hopes to start filming again next month.

A source tells The Sun: “It’s taken a bit of time to write Sue back in because the writers needed to find the perfect scenario to introduce her character. The new scenario is even better than the first one. From the few days Sue was in before she fell ill, everyone was impressed at how wonderfully she fitted in.”
