Viewers of Coronation Street may soon have to say goodbye to a legendary figure who arrived in Weatherfield 12 years ago.
Lisa George, who plays Beth Tinker in the ITV serial opera Coronation Street, is allegedly eager to explore new chances off the cobblestones.
Lisa has portrayed Beth for more than ten years, but she hasn’t been informed of any contracts that extend past the beginning of the following year.
The actress would “love” to try her hand at war dramas or something along the lines of the BBC midwifery serial Call The Midwife if she were to leave Coronation Street.
The 50-year-old actress claimed, “I’m particularly interested in the military material since my granddad talked about the war all the time.
So I’d love to act in a 1940s drama. Or a 1960s-era story would be fantastic.
“I would love to do Call The Midwife,” she continued in her conversation with The Daily Star. I also like watching Ten Pound Poms. It would be fantastic to play a part in anything like that.
“I’d love to carry out such an action. I enjoy old plays and stuff like that, perhaps a drama from the 1940s that is more focused on war themes.
She informed the media that she is “waiting to hear” if her contract with Coronation Street would be extended.
Former girlfriend of lifelong local Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) Beth came at the scene.
She will, however, always be remembered for her friendship with the foolish Kirk Sutherland (Andrew Whyment).
One of the longest-lasting friendships in the Weatherfield serial drama may be theirs.
Beth is hardly an angel, though, as viewers saw when she struck Hope Stape (Isabella Flanagan).
Although she was nasty, she also showed her value when she was a part of a plot that resulted in the death of her niece Sinead (Katie McGlynn).
Will Beth continue to be a mainstay of the ITV serial drama, or will she eventually have to leave the cobblestones behind?
