Coronation Street gives four stars new contracts following recent departures

[Perdita]

Four Coronation Street stars have signed new contracts which will see them stay on the show for at least another year.

Brooke Vincent and Kym Marsh, who play Sophie Webster and Michelle Connor respectively, have both signed new deals committing them to the show until the middle of 2016.

Catherine Tyldesley and Jennie McAlpine, who are both returning to their roles as Eva Price and Fiz Stape after giving birth, have also signed up to stay until next year, The Mirror reports.

The news will be welcomed by Coronation Street fans following the announcement that both Alison King and Craig Charles will be bowing out of the soap.

King, who plays popular character Carla Connor, will be taking a break from the show next year for creative reasons.

Meanwhile, fans will see Charles's final scenes as Lloyd Mullaney in the autumn, following his decision to leave the soap in order to concentrate on filming new episodes of Red Dwarf.

Sorry but I don't welcome the news of any of these actresses being given new contracts, especially Brooke Vincent and Kym Marsh.

Sorry Perdy but I don't like any of them. :p Catherine Tyldesley and Jennie McAlpine are bearable in small doses but I haven't missed them at all during their absences.

Fiz's voice does my head in?

can she not speak without doing the baby-voice?

I wait to be corrected but I dont remember her
speaking with the baby-voice when she first
arrived in Corrie-in fact she had a stroppy
defiant way of speaking.
I thought she assumed the baby-voice when
Hayley was ill-to show "sympathy". I agree
its very irritating
She is one of several female characters in
Corrie who have beem made strange/dim
Over recent years!!

Fiz has always spoken with a baby voice when she was emotional, not just since Hayley's illness. I must admit I find that a bit irritating too but can tolerate it :D

I meant in the early days when she was accusing
Roy of molesting her etc. I seem to recall her being
very sharp and threatening to Hayley.!
I must have paid her an undeserved compliment
about her vocal range!!

Brooke is very popular with young lads. Apparently Kim Marsh is popular with all of us! I think they should stop her and Steve being a couple. I like his new companion better
