Woman who inspired Corrie tart with a heart

This glamorous woman picture is Pamela Guard, a famous singer in the 1950s, but which Coronation Street character did she inspire?

Corrie writer Martin Allen created and named the character after the singer, who he remembered fondly because of 'her enormous knockers'. Apparently she had a lovely smoky singing voice and judging by this publicity picture she was extremely beautfiul too - unfortunately she died in 1989.

Can you guess which Corrie tart she inspired Martin Allen to create on Corrie? Here's a clue, and she's sadly no longer part of the current cast.

I'd say it must be Elsie Tanner. She even looks a little like her.

If you click through the 'Here's a clue' link, though it's not the actual Corrie character, the name is the same.....
