Former Coronation Street actress Vicky Binns has said she turned to teaching during lockdown as acting work dried up.
The 38-year-old was well-known to viewers after playing Molly Dobbs in the ITV soap between 2005 and 2010.
Vicky played Molly on the Cobbles who was married to Tyrone Dobbs before she cheated with his best friend Kevin Webster.
Molly fell pregnant as a result of the affair before she was killed in one of the soap’s most dramatic stunts when a tram crashed onto the iconic street.
Eagle-eyed soap fans will also recognise Vicky from another popular ITV soap, Emmerdale, when she portrayed Ollie Reynolds between 1999 and 2003.
