Coronation Street star Lisa George has addressed her future on the cobbles as she teased wanting to take on other roles. The actress is best known to fans for playing Beth Sutherland - nee Tinker - in the ITV soap.

Then, the following year, Steve again used her when he moved Beth and her son Craig into No.13 to wind up his new wife Tracy Barlow.
But the rest, as they say, is history and Lisa has been portraying Beth in Weatherfield ever since. However, it wasn't the actress' first stint on a soap as she's appeared in Emmerdale as well as Holby City. But playing Beth wasn't even Lisa's first time in Corrie.
