We've never seen her and Nick together which is quite strange. I dont think I could get used to seeing them either, cos Im thinking of her and Adam Rickitt, and I just hate it when characters change actors. Its o.k. when your a child, cos you slowly get used 2 it. But when you have to think back to when they were in a storyline and it was a different actor. Thats just confusing!

SHOCKED Ken Barlow will catch his son's future wife Leanne Battersby romping with ex-hubby Nick Tilsley.
Ken (played by Bill Roache) threatens to tell bookie son Peter - and it looks like the Corrie wedding could be off.
The pair, left, get close after Leanne (Jane Danson) is taken on as bar manager at The Joinery by first love Nick (Ben Price).
A source told TV Biz: "Leanne is wracked with guilt over the affair.
She loves Peter, she loves his son Simon and they've been through a lot together - but Nick was her first love and she never got over that."
However, Peter (Chris Gascoyne) is not perfect either.
He had an affair earlier this year and committed bigamy the last time he got hitched.
Our source said: "Ken knows Peter is no angel, but blood is thicker than water and his loyalty is to Peter.
"He's worried for his son and for little Simon.
"Leanne regrets her affair with Nick, but there is a chance if Ken doesn't blab, Nick will."

Jane Danson has admitted that she would never put her family life at risk like her Coronation Street character Leanne Battersby has done.
In recent weeks, fans have seen Leanne embark on a steamy affair with ex-husband Nick Tilsley (Ben Price), juggling the secret relationship with the home life she has with fiancé Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) and his young son Simon.
However, in an interview with The Mirror, Danson confirmed that in real life she is fully committed to her actor husband Robert Beck and their two young sons Harry and Sam.
The actress explained: "Leanne is feeling a bit trapped with Peter and believes things have got a bit predictable and boring. I'm different. I wouldn't say I like things to be predictable, but I like continuity and routine. I'm a very family-orientated person and although I enjoy my work, I like being with my family as much as I can.
"I like the idea of being a party girl like Leanne but the reality is quite different. My focus is the two boys now. Going out is a real treat. And often if I do get the opportunity, I think that I'd rather just put my PJs on and watch a DVD!
"Leanne seems to like drama and danger in her life. I don't like chaos and I'm completely square in comparison! We're worlds apart really. But I love the fact that we're opposites, because Leanne gives me a licence to do things I wouldn't do in the real world."
Leanne's storyline is one of many which look likely to reach a climax in the soap's 50th anniversary week, which begins tonight.

Coronation Street's Peter Barlow will start drinking again in the aftermath of the soap's 50th anniversary disaster, reports have revealed.
The recovering alcoholic - played by Chris Gascoyne - is expected to fall off the wagon next month as he struggles to overcome the injuries he suffered in the Joinery bar explosion.
According to the Daily Star, Peter must start using a wheelchair after being released from hospital but finds it increasingly difficult to cope with his new life.
Peter reportedly reaches breaking point while out shopping when he drops all of his groceries and cannot pick them up. Subsequent scenes will apparently see him pass an off-licence and buy some booze on the way home.
The latest plot twist is expected to result in scheming Carla Connor (Alison King) continuing her pursuit of Peter as she tries to help him beat the booze, having previously received loyal support from him over her own drink problem.
A source said: "Peter refused to give up on her when she was in the gutter, now it's her turn. But it's not a selfless act because she's desperate to sink her claws in him. The longer she's by his side, the greater the chance she has of getting him to herself."
Fans saw Peter tie the knot with partner Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) in a hospital room last week while he was critically ill.

IN the aftermath of the Corrie viaduct collapse, Leanne Barlow's nightmare is not over as she and her hubby Peter return from honeymoon.
Peter, who was left in a wheelchair after the disaster, struggles to cope with his predicament and lashes out at his loved ones.
Leanne (Jane Danson), pictured with Peter (Chris Gascoyne), is left to to bear the brunt of his anger.
But support for Peter comes from an unexpected source as Leanne's ex-lover Nick Tilsley steps in.
A Corrie insider said: "Poor Peter is making a slow recovery and he's back to battling the temptations of the booze as a result.
"Nick supposedly offers the hand of friendship - but what's he really up to?" As Nick and Peter spend more time together, it transpires that Nick is still determined that he and Leanne should be together.
The source said: "Nick starts playing mind games with Peter. He wants Leanne, and will stop at nothing to get his own way."
