Sue Nicholls has played Audrey Roberts on the cobbles for 45 years
Sue Nicholls has captivated viewers of Coronation Street as the charismatic hairdresser Audrey Roberts for 45 years. But before she made her debut on the iconic Cobbles in 1979, Nicholls had a hidden talent as a singer and had already secured a soap role in the legendary Crossroads. In 1968, Nicholls released the single Where Will You Be?, which climbed to number 17 in the UK Music Charts.
She later added: 'Coronation Street is now my life. I find it easy to come here, I love the people I work with. I love what they give me to do, and I want it to go on.' Audrey also experienced a heart attack in the soap after a family dispute, but she recovered and has since returned to the cobbles. In 2011, a Coronation Street viewer saved her real-life when they noticed the actress had skin cancer.
