The tabloids are reporting today that Catherine Tyldesley, who plays Eva Price in Coronation Street, has signed a contract for her to stay on the show for another year.

And the papers reckon that her new contract is worth £100k.

Catherine recently said in interviews: "I adore Corrie... but there are lots of other things I want to do, and I want to be versatile, so it would be nice to go off and do other bits and pieces.

"But I would hope that no matter what happens, Corrie will always be somewhere I can come home to. I'd love to see Eva at 80-odd, still behind the Rovers bar with her boobs up to here, setting the world to rights."
