Tisha Merry talks Corrie's revenge porn storyline

(This post was originally posted by Flaming Nora on the Coronation Street Blog November 2015, reposted to this blog with permission.)

I'm a big fan of Tisha Merry, who plays Steph Britton on Coronation Street. And I'm a big fan of Steph too although I reckon Steph would already have made mincemeat out of dopey Jamie by now.

Tisha was interviewed on ITV's Lorraine about the revenge porn storyline.  Coming up on Corrie, Steph finds out about Jamie's bribe and photographs, but is unable to stop Jamie from posting them.

Tisha talked about what it's like tackling a sensitive issue that can affect anyone, often with traumatic consequences.

She said: "I hope when people watch it they think, 'I'm not going to do that, I'm going to think twice, this is what can happen'."

Tisha has been on Corrie for almost three years now. Hasn't time flown?!
