I had to work, and I’m glad I made that decision." When we caught up with Lysette at her home in Liverpool, it was clear she was already displaying symptoms of the disease. However, Lysette is determined to keep working. "I worked on Hollyoaks for six years with Parkinson’s and hardly anyone knew," she told us.

The pair have spoken in previous interviews about how the crew would get "annoyed" at them for laughing so much that Lysette's makeup would have to be redone.
