Suranne Jones to star in Coronation Street 60th anniversary show

Several former ‘Coronation Street’ stars will come together for a new documentary to mark the soap’s 60th anniversary.
Suranne Jones – who played Karen McDonald in the show – Sarah Lancashire (Racquel Watts) and Julie Goodyear (Bet Lynch) are among the stars set to appear in ‘Queens of the Street’, which will look back at their time on the famous cobbles.
A source told the Sunday Mirror newspaper: "It’s Corrie’s 60th birthday next year so ITV are planning some special shows to celebrate the landmark.
"The show launched the careers of some of the biggest stars on TV – especially the likes of Suranne and Sarah. It’ll be a real celebration of all those women we’ve seen in the Rovers Return."
Amanda Barrie (Alma Halliwell) and Michelle Keegan (Tina McIntyre) are also expected to be a part of the programme.
Last year, Michelle – who played Tina from 2008 to 2014 – admitted she works hard to make the ‘Corrie’ casting team proud after they "gave her a chance".
Recalling just after she found out she was cast, she said: "I walked out stunned. I phoned my dad and asked if he wanted to be picked up from work. When he got into the car I had the script on the back seat and I asked him to pass it to me. He looked at it, saw my name and what it was and screamed.
"He was – and still is – the biggest ‘Corrie’ fan. It changed my life and all our lives. Part of the reason I work so hard is because I want to make the casting people at ‘Coronation Street’ proud because they were the ones who gave me my chance."
Since departing the role, she has gone on to appear in BBC drama ‘Our Girl’, ITV2 comedy ‘Plebs’ and drama series ‘Ordinary Lies’.
