Sue Cleaver interview: Does Eileen have a future on Corrie?


Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw on Coronation Street, has been chatting about the future of her character on the show.

In an interview with Radio Times, Sue says this about Eileen's future in Weatherfield.

“She still feels as though some people blame her for what her killer ex Pat Phelan did. Both her sons have flown the nest, she has her friends but she wants a proper partner, someone who will look after her and make her feel special. Jan could be that person.

“Eileen is aware Jan has got caught up in a dangerous situation but it is so far removed form her every day life that she can’t really appreciate how much of a murky world it is, or how high the stakes are.”

Radio Times says that Corrie aren’t confirming whether Sue Cleaver is actually departing the cast after almost 20 years, but the star herself thinks this is yet another dodgy decision for the eternally unlucky character.

“I would advise Eileen to stay away from someone so obviously dangerous,” she said. “I don’t think there’s any doubt Jan cares about her but she should focus on the fact she has great friends and a good job, and maybe just for a quieter life.”

Well, as Eileen is going to get a new lodger at No. 11 Coronation Street, I wonder if this means she will be staying on?

Find out who the new lodger is.
