Win new comedy DVD Eaten By Lions starring Hayley Tamaddon


Hayley Tamaddon played Coronation Street's Andrea Beckett. She was last seen leaving Weatherfield in an open top car with Craig Charles, who played Lloyd Mullaney. Lucky girl.



And now we've got a very special competition to win a DVD of comedy film Eaten by Lions, which stars Hayley Tamaddon.

To celebrate the release of Eaten By Lions we are excited to announce we are giving DVD copies of the film to two lucky Coronation Street Blog readers.


Here's what the film is about:
Omar and Pete are half-brothers. When their Gran passes away, they go on a life changing road trip to find Omar's birth father. Armed with a biscuit tin containing a birth certificate, a photograph and their deceased mother’s diary, the pair of likely lads head on a quest that will change their lives forever. Along the way they meet a dodgy fortune teller, their racist aunt and uncle and a seedy guesthouse owner. What could possibly go wrong? What follows is a hilarious journey of self-discovery and the true meaning of family, set amongst the bright lights of Blackpool. 

Eaten by Lions is out on VoD from 22nd July and DVD 29th. To be in with a chance of winning one of the two DVDs, all you have to do is correctly answer the question below. Two winners will be drawn from all correct entries.

To enter, you'll need to view the blog in full web mode and the entry form is over in the right hand side column. 

Here's your question, good luck!

Q: Since leaving Coronation Street, Hayley Tamaddon has starred in a few different stage musicals. All you have to do is name one of them! 

Need a clue? Here's a clue! Here's another! Here's a third!

Deadline for entries is Tuesday 30 July 2019 at 5pm.  Winners will be announced here on the Coronation Street Blog.  Sorry, overseas fans but we are tied to offering this particular competition to those with a UK address only.
