ITV soap star Tina O’Brien is quitting the street. Tina who plays Sarah Louise Platt in the soap Coronation Street, has been on the set for more than seven years; she exits in December with a dramatic storyline.
Tina won best newcomer award in 2000 with her character becoming a mother at the age of thirteen. O’Brien 23 said, “I feel the time has come to see what else is out there.”Viewers will see Tina until December when she makes her final dramatic exit.
As difficult as the decision must have been, Tina O’Brien probably realises that if she is to have a long acting career she has a choice to make - either stay with Corrie forever or get out while she is still young enough. Actors like Sarah Lancashire and Joanne Frogget have never looked back…
