MICHELLE KEEGAN is shocked that Corrie bosses have chosen to kill off
her character.
She thought Tina McIntyre would always have a future in Weatherfield.
But following the actress’s decision to exit the soap, bosses decided to leave
the barmaid no way back, with a big spring storyline.
Michelle says: “I was gutted for Tina more than anything else, because I
always thought she was one of those characters that could come back.”
When Michelle broke her departure news to bosses, it seemed she could one day
return.
She commented: “The producer said, ‘That’s fine, we’ll leave the door open’,
and then they told me they were killing Tina off, which surprised me a bit.”
But, she adds: “I’d rather go out with a bang than in a black cab.”
