I've never been out with any of the cast of Coronation Street. We're all very close friends so it's very much a professional attitude.

If I'd just been interested in record sales, I would have taken one of the deals I was offered after 'Soapstar Superstar,' made a quick covers album and probably had some success for five minutes. I decided that wasn't for me.

It still hasn't sunk in that I'm going to be in Coronation Street. Everything about the role is brilliant and I'm working with some great people.

I trust my mom with anything. If I have a problem, my mom is always the first person I go to.

I've never really been star struck. I was a little bit taken aback when I was doing a chat show recently and I was sat in the make-up chair chatting to a guy say next to me but I couldn't look round and see who it was, it was only when I got up I realised it had been Bryan Adams I'd been talking to!

I'm not really into gothic music, it's not really my type of scene but each to their own. I listen to pretty much anything.
