Sue Cleaver interview: Celebrating 20 years as Eileen Grimshaw


There's a good interview with Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw in Coronation Street, in this week's Inside Soap magazine.

She says that she was only ever intending to stay a year at the soap so being there for 20 years is surreal. "Corrie is a seductive place," she tells the mag.

She says she landed the role as she was doing a series with Harry Enfield when she was called to Corrie for an audition. Her first day on set was working with Chris Bissom, who played Vikram Desai who picked up Eileen in his cab. During the journey she basically told Vikram how to do his job and that's how she ended up working for Streetcars.

It's a good, long interview which you can read fully in the magazine.
