I've been watching Corrie lately and from what I saw, I liked. That Rosie is a fab actress. And is it me or does Fiz look sort of attractive lately? I'm sure she's lost some weight, she looked ace yesterday, I must say.

Coronation Street's Rovers Return pub is to undergo a makeover for the first time in years - but is not to close down.

The world-famous boozer will have a minor facelift when landlady Liz Tomlin's (Bev Callard) new husband Vernon (Ian Reddington) drafts in friends to brighten up the 105-year-old watering hole.

A spokesperson for the soap has expressly denied reports in one of today's tabloids which suggests that the pub is to close due to financial problems or turn into a gastro-pub.

They said: "To suggest that the pub will close or change radically is total nonsense. Vernon has a few ideas for new flooring and upholstery that Liz nips in the bud before they even get off the ground.

"A couple of his mates then come in and give the place a lick of paint. It will look a bit brighter and fresher but that is all - and the pub won’t even close for redecorating.

"The bar will stay in the same place, the booths will remain, as will the coloured glass. The biggest change will be a smoking area in the back yard to save punters having to stand out on the Street.

"As for the pub having financial problems that is also rubbish. The Rovers is at the heart of the Street and is a thriving business and will remain that way.

They added: "It is frustrating for us when false stories like this appear and it does cause concern for our viewers but we would like to reassure them that there is no truth in this story at all."

The last notable occasion the Rovers was renovated and refurbished was in the aftermath of the 1986 fire storyline. The establishment was nearly demolished as a result.

from itv website heres tina profile

DOB: 18th April
Marital Status: Single
Address: Lives with mum and step-dad
Occupation: Works in a pound shop

First arrived
Monday, 7th January 2008 when she has a row with Gail Platt in the medical centre.

Character reference
Feisty Tina works in a pound shop in the precinct, but it’s a job she fell into rather than not being smart enough to do anything else. Tina has never felt like she’s fitted in anywhere, but she’s not a pushover by any means. She thinks she knows everything, but doesn’t and would rather be friends with lads than girls, who usually hate her. Challenge her to an arm wrestle and she’ll probably win.

Love life
Tina meets David immediately after having an argument with his mother in the medical centre after she misses her appointment. She storms out and runs straight into David, who’s wearing a new shirt, which she spills a drink on. While the pair are both angry with each other at first, there’s soon a spark between the two.

It’s not long before Tina sees something in David that she likes, no doubt his rebellious streak, which is very similar to her own.
At first Tina is set to tame demon David, but it’s not long before these two are hitting the pinnacles in terms of trouble.

Memorable scene
Drenching David’s new shirt when she storms out of the medical centre.
