Coronation Street is set to welcome a new character played by none other than The Fast Show star Arabella Weir. The actress has filmed a guest appearance on the ITV soap, where she is taking on the role of Yvette.
Yvette is an old neighbour of Aggie and Ed Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw and Trevor Michael Georges), dating back to when they had money.
She will run into the Bailey’s once more and be shocked by how different their lives now are. Actress Arabella has made a name for herself in the comedy world, with her credits including Posh Nosh, Skins and Two Doors Down.
