Coronation Street actress Catherine Tyldesley has bemoaned the fact that she never gets approached by men outside of the show, and has suggested that her on-screen alter ego might put them off.
The 28-year-old has been single since joining Coronation Street as man-eater Eva Price a year ago.

Speaking to The Mirror, Tyldesley said: "I'm so disillusioned with men at the moment.
"When I'm out I never get approached, unless it's by some drunken idiot. I get the occasional person who will talk to me and there has been some interest, but nothing outrageous. I certainly don't get chatted up.
"Possibly men are intimidated by my screen character, I don't know. I've been single for a while. I've been on a couple of dates, but it's been quite a long time now."
However, she went on the explain: "I'm not bothered, though. I haven't got the time and it's not a priority. It wouldn't be fair to be in a relationship. Work is full-on at the minute so it would be a case of, 'Well, I can fit you in between three and four'."
Tyldesley has previously spoken of her desire for a long future in the soap, an ambition she reiterated to The Mirror, saying: "I'd like to stay in Coronation Street for as long as they'll have me. I'm really happy here."
This woman is so far up herself she will soon need her own thread. ''Catherine Tyldesley talks bout everthing but mostly herself''
