Source: Visit websiteCoronation Street star Sally Ann Matthews baffled fans this weekend, when she made an unexpected dig at broadcaster ITV on social media, while revealing her particular her dislike for one aspect of filming. The Jenny Connor actress, who first starred in the soap between 1986-1991, before returning full time in 2015, was taking part in a Q⁘A session on social media, when she addressed a question put to her by one curious viewer who asked: ⁘Where would you like to film on location?"
Sally then revealed that location shooting was now a rarity on the soap, as she responded: ⁘We don't do on location … right … ok so the whole 'Corrie doesn't do location any more.'
The unusual comment about her employer immediately caused concern among fans, who earlier this year had feared Sally's alter-ego Jenny may have been axed from the soap after she appeared to vanish from our screens for several weeks.
Loyal soap fans were quick to fear the worst earlier this year, when Sally took to social media to share her desire for "happier times" amid a shortage of storylines that required her presence on screen. Speaking to fans at the time, Sally said: "I chose to get on an airplane because I'm particularly quiet at work I've got like a million years off, so I chose to go on an aeroplane and I chose to remember happier times."
The actress then went on to reveal she had jetted off the Cyprus twice in the space of five weeks, and was intending to head abroad again to "do nowt." She then cryptically commented: "And at some point I might get a job and someone might employ me, potentially."
When asked directly if she had been axed by new showrunner Kate Brooks, Sally Ann just made an awkward sound and declined to comment any further.
"Have you left the street? Hmm. Hang on, next question," she told fans. "You're not going to be seeing Jenny for quite a long while. So that's that."
