Sally Ann Matthews has hangover plans for British Soap Awards

Sally Ann Matthews is already stocking up for her British Soap Awards hangover.
The ‘Coronation Street’ star – who first appeared as Jenny Connor on the cobbles from 1986 to 1991 and made a full time return in 2015 – has been nominated for the best actress prize at this weekend’s ceremony, and it appears she is already anticipating a heavy night regardless of whether she wins or loses.
Taking to Twitter on Friday (31.05.19), she teased: "Going to do my Soap Awards hangover shopping today:Dioralyte, full-fat coke, jelly sweets, lightly salted Kettle Chips. Love a bit of forward planning x (sic)"
Sally keeps her fans entertained on social media, and earlier this year she even used her account as a call for help when was unable to remove the cover of her smoke detector to change the battery.
In the end, Shayne Ward – who previously portrayed Sally’s on-screen stepson Aidan Connor on the soap – came to the rescue by sending her a video explaining the process.
She wrote on Twitter: "I’m a damsel (ish) in distress. Anyone know how to remove the cover so I can change the battery? x (sic)"
One of her pals, who is a fireman, sent Sally a number of tweets explaining how to do it.
He tweeted: "Lucky for you! You’ve just made friends with a firefighter! Haha the two clips at the side need pressing in simultaneously x
"Yes get a screwdriver in there and lever it open x …
"Then line the two triangles up to put in back on … (sic)"
And she later thanked her pals while revealing two security guards had managed to carry out the task after Shayne and her fireman friend’s tweets.
She wrote: "When @shayneTward sends you a ‘how to’ video and your new fireman mate @aaronlp1 explains all and then two lovely Media City security guards do the muscle work, that’s when you change the battery in your smoke detector x (sic)"
