Gabrielle Glaister’s Coronation Street stint is about to come to an end, as her character Fern Lindon exits the show. 

Corrie has been having a lot of fun exploiting the visual similarities between Gabrielle and fellow actress Jane Hazlegrove, who plays Bernie Winter. The pair are often mistaken for each other in real life, so they were excited when the opportunity came up for Gabrielle to join Jane in Corrie.
