Stephanie Cole was waiting for God and now she's waiting on Weatherfield's residents in Corrie

She is one of Britain's finest character actors with memorable roles in 'Tenko', 'Waiting for God' and 'Doc Martin' but it is as Sylvia in 'Coronation Street' - the pensioner with a taste for cannabis cakes that's caused controversy.

'Coronation Street' is next on ITV on Friday 12th April at 7.30pm.
