    Coronation Street's Kate Ford has said starring in a soap is one of the best jobs for a working mum.
    This is the woman who last year said she was quitting Corrie to enjoy her family. Pity she disappointed us all

    KERRY KATONA is so desperate to make a comeback that she's hired an agent in a bid to be an actor.
    And the reality TV star fancies a starring role on Coronation Street — pulling pints in Weatherfield's Rovers Return.

    Kerry, who has had drink and drug problems in the past, said: "Imagine it, leopard print jacket, cigarette in me gob, 'All right love, lager and lime?' I'd be right at home."

    The I'm A Celeb, Get Me Out Of Here! winner also thinks she's got what it takes to be a star on the small screen.

    She said: "People don't realise how much acting I've done. I was in a comedy drama Showbands which was only shown in Ireland and obviously there's the Iceland adverts."

    But if the call doesn't come from Corrie... there's always the Chatsworth Estate.

    Kerry added: "I'd be great in Shameless. I can see myself in my pants with a can of beer going, 'all right, love?' "


    Maybe she could be another daughter Stella has not told anybody about

    The sad thing is that there are people out there who would also like Katona to be in these things

    Kate Ford has revealed she would love to star in a comedy.
    The actress - best known for playing Coronation Street's Tracy Barlow - said it would be fun to do something "frivolous".
    "I wouldn't mind doing a comedy. That would be quite nice. Something like Benidorm would be good; something frivolous," she said.
    The 34-year-old also fancies a part in a Woody Allen film, as she is a big fan of the eccentric filmmaker's work.
    "I love Sweet And Lowdown, and Bullets Over Broadway and Annie Hall," she added.
    Before making her Corrie debut, Kate worked on the movie The Affair Of The Necklace, which starred Oscar-winner Hilary Swank.
    She said: "That was fun, but that was quite scary because it had some big film stars in it; that was my first job. I was working with Hilary Swank, and because I'd just left drama school I was sat next to her in make-up and that was fun and bit like, wow!
    "I was on the set of this big budget movie, though it was a really small part. I wasn't even in the final film."

    Yes, please, if that means leaving Corrie for good

    Funny I thought she was a comedy actress because her so called acting is a JOKE

    Dancing On Ice contestant Andy Whyment has revealed that he wants to stay in Coronation Street for as long as possible.

    The actor admitted that he loves playing Kirk Sutherland in the ITV1 soap and confessed he has no plans to continue skating once the competition ends

    "I have been acting since I was eight. But with Corrie I will stay there as long as they will have me. I am into my 11th year and it is a great show. I would love it to be a job for life," Whyment told The Mirror.

    "I have got so many close friends there, it is 25 minutes from where I live so I am home every night. It is a fantastic job. I have always loved playing Kirk.

    "When Dancing finishes I won't carry on skating much. It would be nice if the kids [son Thomas, three, and one-year-old daughter Hollie] wanted to go, I could show them a few tricks, but I am not an amazing skater, even though I have come on leaps and bounds."

    He added that he is doing a "Grease tune" on this week's Dancing On Ice, teasing that the wardrobe department may give him a wig to look like John Travolta.

    Somebody must have said, " Let's cut the girl who looks like the joker"

    Andy is a nice chap. Unambitious and realistic.

    Coronation Street star Antony Cotton has rubbished reports of a dispute with his soap colleagues Jack P Shepherd and Ryan Thomas.

    The actor, who plays Weatherfield's Sean Tully, mocked the pair on Twitter at the weekend after they jokingly accused him of name-dropping on the social networking site.

    Cotton responded by branding Shepherd (David Platt) a "little irritant" and claiming that Thomas (Jason Grimshaw) has "a lot of time on his hands" due to a lack of offers for personal appearances.

    Although the 36-year-old quickly assured his followers that the remarks were light-hearted, the tweets have today led to tabloid reports of a "war of words" between the Coronation Street stars.

    Writing on his Twitter page this morning, Cotton commented: "Slow news day today obvs (sic). Breaking news!!! @ryanjamesthomas @JackPShepherd88 and I have a sense of humour. I know!!! Outrageous!!!"

    He continued: "But seriously though. I called @ryanjamesthomas and @JackPShepherd88 to my office first thing this morning and they issued this statement - 'We apologise unreservedly to the old boot. We promise to make him cups of tea whenever he wants'. I was unavailable for comment."

    Cotton recently took a break from Coronation Street to star on ITV1's I'm A Celebrity, but is now back filming and will return to screens in March.
