A former Brookside star will be returning to the world of soaps as she joins the cast of ITV's Coronation Street . While many stars are currently leaving the Cobbles, Suzanne Collins will reportedly be making an appearance in a guest role later this month.
Since leaving the Liverpool-based programme, Suzanne also had a short stint on Hollyoaks as she made a guest appearance.
The latest addition to the Corrie cast comes as a number of soap stars are leaving the ITV show. Some have been cut by bosses while others have decided to call it a day on their own terms.
Reportedly among those leaving are Craig Tinker actor Colson Smith, Sue Cleaver who plays Eileen Grimshaw, Luca Toolan who portrays Mason Radcliffe, Debbie Webster actress Sue Devaney and Shelley King who plays Yasmeen Metcalfe.
Financial strains are reportedly at the heart of the issue, with insiders citing a significant budget crunch as the reason behind the firings.
" Corrie is on its knees financially and bosses are being forced to make hard decisions" an insider disclosed, pointing to skyrocketing TV production costs and a dwindling advertising market.
