Coronation Street favourite Vicky Myers reflects on Alison King's 20 years with soap amid huge night for Swarla fans ...Middle East

News by : (Radio Times) -

The actress, who plays Lisa Connor-Swain in the ITV soap, was also celebrating winning the Best Actress trophy at a ceremony held in Manchester.

"And I think that goes down to the loyalty and the unwavering support of the fans is just off the scale, and I couldn't be more grateful. To be acknowledged and to achieve this is really something that I never expected, even last year."

It's been quite the eventful year for Lisa and new wife Carla. The pair faced a rocky road towards marriage, with Lisa's ex-wife Becky (Amy Cudden) returning from years in witness protection to try and jeopardise their happiness.

Sadly, married life has been anything but harmonious. Lisa's daughter Betsy (Sydney Martin) has suffered two strokes – a storyline which raised awareness of non-fatal sexual strangulation.

"You've got Ryan, who's just so beautiful, and he's had his problems and struggles, and the way that he is very much like a sibling/uncle to Betsy. Carla loves Betsy as her own, which leaves us extremely grateful. And then obviously the dynamic between Ryan and Lisa, and the love between Lisa and Carla."

When asked whether Lisa may become a player in her colleague Kit Green's (Jacob Roberts) breast cancer battle, Myers teased: "I think the dynamic between Kit and Lisa is really interesting, and it can be quite sibling-like. Maybe something will come in the future. I think it'll be interesting to see how that unfolds."

This year marks King's 20th year of playing Carla – and Myers couldn't be prouder of her colleague.

"We  marked that last week because it was it was 20 years since she filmed her first scene, which was just amazing. So, what a phenomenal achievement! Long may it continue."
