CORONATION Street favourite Lisa George has fuelled speculation she could be dropped from the soap after admitting she is eyeing up other roles.<\/p>\n
The star, who plays Beth Sutherland on the ITV soap, told how she is waiting to hear if she will be offered another contract for the show.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
Lisa joined the show back in 2011 and has remained central to Weatherfield ever since.<\/p>\n
But could Beth's days be numbered?<\/p>\n
Her marriage<\/span> to Kirk has been under strain since the beginning of the year after Beth secretly met up with her handsome ex Marco to pursue if they still had a connection.<\/p>\n It led to a split for the once-strong couple when Kirk did discover her deceit.<\/p>\n However, they have since managed to patch things up but could the marriage still be threatened by a potential exit for her character.<\/p>\n Chatting to the Daily Star about her future<\/span> on the show, Lisa appeared to suggest it was uncertain.<\/p>\n She admitted to the publication that she was "just waiting to hear if I get another contract".<\/p>\n Lisa's current contract keeps her on the show until this Christmas.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n Lisa went onto dish that landing a part in BBC favourite Call The Midwife would be the ideal next<\/span> move for her.<\/p>\n The actress said: "I\u2019m really \u00adinterested in the war stuff, because my grandad talked about the war all the time. So I\u2019d love to do a 1940s drama. Or something set in the '60s would be amazing.<\/p>\n "I would love to do Call the Midwife."<\/p>\n She then confessed that she would love to follow in her former co-star Michelle Keegan's footsteps by working on Ten Pound Poms.<\/p>\n Lisa added: "I watched Ten Pound Poms and loved it. A role in something like that would be amazing."<\/p>\n It seems she has her heart set on appearing in a throwback show, further commenting: "I\u2019d love to do something like that. I like my vintage dramas and stuff like that, maybe a 1940s drama, more like war stuff."<\/p>\n Aside from Coronation Street, Lisa has dipped her toe into ITV reality shows with an impressive stint on the much-loved 2020 edition of Dancing on Ice.<\/p>\n She also showed off her vocals when she took part in All Star Musicals<\/span>.<\/p>\n But if it is a new acting challenge the star is up for, you can almost guarantee it will pay homage to the past.<\/p>\nRead More on Lisa George<\/h2>\n
