Summary
This week we're joined by Corrie icon and TikTok star Farrel Hegarty. She talks us through the ups and downs of playing Lou on Coronation Street, how people hated her character at first, and whether she thinks Lou could be in for a lesbian awakening during her four year stint in prison. Farrel also opens up about identifying as bisexual before her friend 'told her' she was a lesbian, meeting her girlfriend at Manchester Pride, their long distance relationship, and how many frogs she had to kiss before finding the one.
