The actress played village legend Viv Hope for 18 years on the ITV soap before she was axed in 2011. She told Soap on the Box podcast: "The truth being there were six people auditioning for Bob and the producer came up to me and said, ‘look did you have any feelings about any them?’ "And I said, ‘Look just not number six because he was really creepy’.
