This Is Your Life - Sue Nicholls

We're off to the cobbles of Wetherfield now for the next TIYL instalment but unlike other Corrie themed episodes the book master Michael Aspel is not venturing to the iconic Rovers Return he's actually venturing to the hair salon which was then owned by Fiona Middleton the mother of recent newcomer to the street Emma Brooker Steve McDonald's long lost daughter alias Alexandra Mardell. The subject in question is a true Corrie legend who made her debut on the cobbles in 1979 and has been a permanent fixture ever since off screen she's married to another Corrie icon Mark Eden who played legendary baddie Alan Bradley from 1986-89 before he famously met his maker in front of a Blackpool tram after terrorizing poor Rita Tanner. Enjoy folks as Michael Aspel presents This Is Your Life Sue Nicholls alias Audrey Roberts.

Today is November the 14th, 2023. In just 9 days, our beloved Sue is gonna celebrate her 80th birthday!

The moment Alan and Rita meet. What a lovely greeting. They was great together and one of my favourite storylines and baddies.

[@snm7654]

I love watching these and wish they'd bring this show back. Saying that though it wouldn't be the same because most famous people nowadays don't seem as genuine and down to earth as they used to be years ago...Which is a shame

[@theonlysdw]

I love when Mark goes to hug Barbara. It shows just what good friends they were.

[@SuzyQ334]

Lovely. Watching from Australia. Lots of my favourite Corrie characters here including the late great Ann Kirkbride and Liz Dawn. Back when Corrie was fun and unmissable. (I had forgotten Sue was also in Crossroads) xx

Thanks for sharing this I just love Sue. ❤❤

My Mum attended the same school as Sue, they were in the same class together :)

Really loved watching this. RIP Sue's lovely husband Mark Eden 💗

Nice to see Patrick Fyfe on the show RIP what a talented man

[@janesheehan8511]

Lovely to see all those performers but sad that some have since passed away

[@KenFromBeara]

True

[@jackbutler6606]

Love how normally the celebs getting This is Your Lifed are fairly surprised at who comes on, meanwhile Sue is just like "WAIT THEY GOT WHO" for every other person, it's so great

[@barrymontgomery408]

I like sue Nicholls a lot she's a wonderful actress playing the part of Audrey Roberts in coronation street. Brian Mosley played her screen husband in the soap opera but she also met and became friends with Mark Eden in fiction then she married him in real life. R.i.p. Mark and Brian.

Alan(Mark Eden) and Rita(Barbara Knox) reunion on Sue Nicholls This Is Your Life. Brilliant how Mark hugged Barbara who he hasn't seen since Alan was killed off in a hit by tram scene that was seen by millions worldwide Alan getting his final cuppentance in a horrifying scene broadcast for all Coronation Street fans worldwide to watch.

[@edidsbury]

There are so many wonderful moments in this, but for me it's when she says "I'm not a star." Her genuine talent and humility shine through. Something her younger, grossly overpaid and largely talentless contemporary fellow "actors" could learn from.

[@prowelsh56]

One of th lovely ladies for British comedy...have to love her xxxxxx

[@alidavidson2684]

i would have loved Amanda Barrie to be on Sues Show

[@JohannaLeigh]

What a treat to see John Inman (aka Mr. Humphries on Are You Being Served?) Funny, too, because Sue's hair fresser reminded me of John.

[@marcustibbs2803]

She Amazing actress

[@leehambleton9919]

I collect autographs of corrie stars past and present all cast members do send a signed photograph but sue didn't just send me a standard signed photo she actually took the time to write down a few words thanking me for my autograph request there has been some big iconic characters over the years and sue playing Audrey is definitely up there with the best iconic characters Lee Hambleton from Sheffield

[@traceypace92]

Life when we were allowed to hug people. Seems such a long time ago

[@AquaFonic]

OH give over 🙄🙄🙄

[@Velasca]

A shame to see this set so full of life here and then see the photos of it looking derelict recently. I think it's a car park now.

[@KenFromBeara]

I never knew she is married to Alan Bradley

Rentaghost (not the first one) Miss Popov? 🐱

[@dlk1dlk1]

Yes.

[@janetkerby4722]

Actually, I was in your sister Judith's class at Abbots Bromley! . She used to help me with my Maths! I also remember Sue's lovely smile. Janet Kerby, now living in New Zealand. My maiden name, Boulderstone, was a source of some embarrassment!

[@suej3959]

A trip down memory lane, lovely to see all those characters from long ago. The posh accents though... 😏 So over the top, and a bit cringe. How did Sue Nichols and her family all come out of Walsall speaking like that?

[@notesfrommateriality7572]

they got out of Walsall cos they didn't have cringeworthy reverse snobbism attitudes like yourself

[@eshaibraheem4218]

Posh accents?

[@susi-emily]

Just because someone is born in the Midlands, doesn't mean they have to speak like Barry from Auf Weidersehn, Pet.

[@jodiexplain662]

How many times does she adjust her scarf and tuck her hair behind her ears 🤣

[@davidcartmell2141]

what does it matter

[@digitalmediafan]

Yes that's what luvvies do I guess ;-)

[@CosgroveNotts]

Definitely Suzi the hottie
