Very sad that she was taken quite suddenly, at a relatively young age. I wasn't a great fan but still feel sorry that her life was cut short when she had given such pleasure to so many and deserved more years with her loved ones, friends and colleagues. May she rest in peace.

I was sad to hear this on tonight's news. I liked her on Corrie and I'm sure she will be missed

May she rest in peace

How very sad.

I haven't watched Coronation Street for years and I had no idea she was ill. :-(

R.I.P. Anne.

Anne had previously taken a hiatus from the soap in 1993 after she was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma and after being cured, she returned to the show less than a year later :-( :-(

Not a fan but..........

It is with great sadness that David Beckett has confirmed tonight that his beloved wife and Coronation Street actress Anne Kirkbride has passed away peacefully in a Manchester hospital after a short illness.
