Coronation Street star Rachel Leskovac has expressed fears that she could be axed from the soap.
The actress, who has played Natasha Blakeman since May 2008, confirmed that news of job cuts at ITV has left her concerned over her future.
"I am secure till August and I will know in May whether or not they want to keep me," Leskovac told The People. "But I am worried that if ITV are going to make cuts, I might go.
"I am going to have the best time I can and also hope I make as good an impact as possible so they keep me on.
"It's very quiet out there for actors, not much drama is being made. My agent told me I am in the best place even with the cuts that are happening though."
Leskovac was best known for playing murderous nurse Kelly Yorke in Holby City before landing her Weatherfield role. She has also appeared in The Royal and Where The Heart Is.
