Maggie "Blanche Hunt" Jones dies aged 75
CORRIE star Maggie Jones passed away this morning, aged 75.
The much-loved actress, who played Weatherfield's battleaxe Blanche Hunt, died in hospital after battling a long illness.
She was forced to pull out of filming on the soap in October after being rushed to hospital for major surgery.
Maggie won several comedy awards for playing feisty Blanche - who is loved for her sharp tongue and tell-it-like-it-is manner.
She first appeared in the ITV1 soap in 1974 and became a regular cast member in 1999.
