When Elisabeth Sladen was in Coronation Street

Sad news today that actress Elisabeth Sladen has died. Elisabeth starred in Doctor Who and The Sarah Jane Adventures and will be much missed by her fans. 

But did you know that she once appeared in Coronation Street too? 


In 1970 she played the part of Anita Reynolds, barmaid of the Flying Horse, in six episodes of Corrie.  Anita Reynolds accepted Len Fairclough's proposal of marriage in 1970. Len got cold feet when he discovered that he was the same age as Anita's father and had even gone to school with him!  Len suggested a long engagement, causing the eager Anita to end the relationship.
