Denise, 66, who brought to life the character of Natalie Barnes in Weatherfield, recounted: "I remember being terrified when I had to do a scene with Rita, Barbara Knox, because Barbara is wonderful but she is like Dame Barbara, quite intimidating." Denise also highlighted the need for better support for newcomers to the show: "But I did say to the producer you have got to get some kind of starter pack for the young ones come in because their lives are going to change with a month of being on television.", reports the Daily Star.
Denise's tenure on Coronation Street spanned from 1997 to 2000, where her character Natalie Barnes emerged as the feisty mother of Tony Horrocks , co-owner of MVB Motors, eventually becoming the landlady of the iconic Rovers Return pub.
