Former Coronation Street star Ellie Leach is thought to be in the running to appear on the BBC's Waterloo Road.The 22 year old is currently training up to star on Strictly Come Dancing, which is back on September 16, but the corporation is apparently keen to keep her on the channel.
If the rumours are true, we could soon be seeing more of her on our screens in Waterloo Road alongside the likes of Adam Thomas - who is also on Strictly this year.
A source told The Sun: “Ellie was hugely popular when she appeared on Weatherfield’s cobbles as Faye Windass and there’s every chance she’ll be a bigger hit when she gets on the dancefloor. “When the glitter falls on the upcoming series of Strictly, they want to tap into her mass appeal and bring that over to Waterloo Road. “They don’t want to leave it too late and have another show snap her up.” Ellie is best-known for her role as single mum Faye Windass on Coronation Street, who she played for 12 years.
