Great news. Hope she accepts it.
Corrie wouldn't be Corrie without Deirdre.

I love Deirdre but that's silly money, quarter of a million a year for sreaming 'Ken! Do something!' and 'Traceyluv'. Really?!

I never knew that Anne Kirkbride was 60, although not sure if Deirdre is meant to be that age. Mind you, her and Ken don't look so far apart in age any more, seeing him last night walking along the street in a white shirt, looking tall, tanned and still with a full head of wavy hair, he looks amazing for 83 or whatever he is. Suppose loads won't agree with me.

They could employ at least three other actors for that sort of money, and I dread to think what Antony Cotton is getting.

![]() After 42 years Anne has more than earned whatever they offer her imo.

Yes, we could have three more Yasmeens, Kirks or Maddies. Be careful what you wish for.

I sometimes take these pay rise stories with a pinch of salt. Wasn't she given a "contact for life" or something last year during all the accusations against Bill Roache? And why more money for doing the same thing? I don't think she will be planning on leaving the show anytime soon.

Nice one R Deerj. I'd give her a quarter mil just for that crying she did when Kenneth returned.

When you consider pampered footballers are getting that a week, for 'roasting' young girls, running amok in nightclubs, and crying like babies, I'd say she's earning every darn penny (and then some).
PS. Agree with everything OJ has said here ^^^ The voice of reason as always. |

I hope she only agrees if they let her play the harmonica in at least two episodes a year.

I'd give the show 100k if it meant they marooned Cotton on a desert Island somewhere in Oceania. Can't see him lasting long with the wild animals.

I'll top it up to a round £300k if she comes and does a decent bit of stuffed marrow for me family once a week.
