Coronation Street's Sophie Webster furious with Tommy Duckworth

'Coronation Street's Sophie Webster will be furious when she discovers Tommy Duckworth has made a play for her girlfriend.

The 19-year-old lothario - played by former 'Hollyoaks' star Chris Fountain - offers to give Sophie's girlfriend Sian Powers (Sacha Parkinson) a driving lesson before attempting to kiss her but Brooke Vincent who plays Sophie says her character is not impressed.

She said: "She's got such an attitude hasn't she so she's not going to take it well."

However Brooke says things couldn't be more different in real life as she finds it difficult to be mean to Chris because he makes her laugh so much.

She explained: "We've filmed some of those scenes already and because I know Chris already it's just funny to act nasty or with an attitude towards him. I'm supposed to be having a go at him but then there are times when he looks at me and I just burst out laughing.

"I love working with him, we get on really well and Sacha gets on with him too so it's great."

Brooke also revealed she adores being one half of the soap's lesbian couple and is thrilled when she hears from impressed viewers.

She told BANG Showbiz: "I don't know where Sophie and Sian are going - I just trust the writers to do what they think is best but I know the public really support the couple. We've got such a big gay fan base and as I'm not a lesbian myself it's wonderful to hear that we are portraying the couple realistically.

I think they're meant to be together and hope they do stay together but they are only young so who knows?"
