Mr Curry Sauce told The Sun: “It’s safe to say Sarah’s Corrie career hasn’t gone as planned. Fans and critics have been pretty unimpressed with her acting. It doesn’t reflect well on Corrie, who have been accused of chasing ratings with gimmicks. They will not be getting her back and the general consensus on set is that this was a failed experiment.”
However, although she was only signed up for four episodes it was later reported that Sarah Harding apparently "wowed show bosses". And she said she's been asked back to film more episodes later this year. So perhaps this is the return that's been axed?
A Coronation Street spokesperson confirmed to The Sun: "Sarah was cast for four episodes in a cameo role for a specific storyline. There are no immediate plans for the character of Joni to return.”
Sarah also admitted that she was never auditioned for her role on the show. "The producers YouTubed me."
I have one word in response to this news item: Phew.
