Vicki Michelle said Emmerdale will always be special to her

A former Emmerdale star has opened up about the rival soap she’d ‘love’ to join.

Vicki Michelle, 73, played Patricia Foster, in the ITV soap, between 2007 and 2009 in the ITV soap. In an interview with SlotsCalendar Vicki has spoken about her love of soaps.

She also admitted that she’d be keen for a role in Coronation Street.

“I’d definitely love to appear on Coronation Street – all these soaps are brilliant!” she said. “Emmerdale too obviously, that will always be a special programme to me.

“But I suppose you have to choose one or the other; you can’t be in both, or you’d be jumping back and forth.

“That said, the storylines in so many soaps these days are really being pushed to the extreme. They used to focus on family, but now it’s all about murders and darker stuff, they’ve really taken it to the nth degree now. Honestly, how many people can get murdered in one series? But it does make for compulsive viewing.”
