Vicky Binns praises Corrie affair plot

Coronation Street star Vicky Binns has revealed that she feels "so privileged" to be part of the show's infidelity plotline.

In recent months, fans have seen the actress's character Molly Dobbs embarking on a secret affair with mechanic Kevin Webster, while their respective partners Tyrone (Alan Halsall) and Sally (Sally Whittaker) remained clueless.

Though Kevin (Michael Le Vell) decided to choose his cancer-stricken wife Sally over Molly at Christmas, the story will take a new twist next week as Molly goes ahead with her plan to break up with Tyrone for good.

Speaking to DS about how she is finding the plot, Binns enthused: "It's fantastic. Literally every week - we get the scripts in blocks of five - we go, 'Oh my God! We're going this way now? Oh my God, they're splitting up!'

"They haven't held back and I think they've been true to all the characters and their reactions. It's been a brave storyline and they've not been afraid of testing all those characters."

She continued: "It's a storyline of three marriages really because Kevin and Tyrone are friends as well. I'm so privileged and really enjoying it. It's so challenging emotionally because you've always got to find the truth of that character and find why she's doing it."
