Tina O'Brien would "never" let her daughter watch 'Coronation Street'.
The 32-year-old actress doesn't think seven-year-old Scarlett - who she has with ex-boyfriend and 'Corrie' co-star Ryan Thomas - would enjoy the soap as she doesn't even like it when they play pretend at home.
Tina said: "I was filming the scene yesterday where I got run over so I had a tiny cut put on my head.
"I forgot to take it off at the end of the day and, when I got home, she went, 'Mummy what's that? Take it off now.'
"Even though she knows it's not real, she hates it.
"She doesn't even like it if we're messing around and I pretend to cry, so I would never let her watch me in 'Corrie'."
Tina also admitted she and Adam Crofts - with who she has 13-month-old son Beau - had to put their plans to marry on hold because she has been so busy with 'Coronation Street' this year.
She told Closer magazine: "He's my best mate and I feel very lucky, it's just finding the right time.
"We've got a baby and I've had the live 'Corrie' episode to focus on so we've had quite a lot on recently."

Matt Lucas and Greg Davies are to appear in the 'Doctor Who' Christmas special.
While it's already known that Alex Kingston will be reprising her role as River Song in the festive episode, it's now been revealed Greg will be playing King Hydroflax while Matt has been cast as Nardole.
A synopsis of the episode reads: "It's Christmas Day on a remote human colony and the Doctor is hiding from Christmas Carols and Comedy Antlers.
"But when a crashed spaceship calls upon the Doctor for help, he finds himself recruited into River Song's squad and hurled into a fast and frantic chase across the galaxy.
"King Hydroflax is furious, and his giant robot bodyguard is out of control and coming for them all! Will Nardole survive? And when will River Song work out who the Doctor is?
"All will be revealed on a starliner full of galactic super-villains and a destination the Doctor has been avoiding for a very long time."
The news comes after showrunner Steven Moffat teased that River and the 12th Doctor, played by Peter Capaldi, will be a match made in heaven in the Christmas episode.
He explained: "The big deal is Doctor No 12 encountering River and vice versa. It's strange because they're now, in our human terms, the perfect couple. They're both sexy older people. It's always been slightly strange before with Matt Smith. Now, yeah, they could actually be married. It works."
Moffat added: "If you're a long-term fan of the show, you might be interested because there's been a lot of talk about the Doctor and River's glory years but we've never seen them. Here at last we seem them as Mr. and Mrs. Who at the height of their powers. It's great fun."

'The X Factor's 4th Impact have been teaching Cheryl Fernandez-Versini how to pose.
The girl group's mentor on the show has been in the music industry for over 13 years but has admitted her protégés have been teaching her some new tricks when it comes to taking a good photo.
During an interview on 'The Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Nick Grimshaw' on BBC Radio 1, 'The X Factor' judge asked: "Has Cheryl taught you any tips on how to pose and how to have your picture taken?"
The 'Crazy, Stupid Love' singer quickly retorted: "They are giving me tips. They've got it in the bag."
The sisters - Almira, Irene, Mylene and Celina Cercado - are loving their time on the show and claimed they couldn't imagine having anyone other than Cheryl as their mentor.
They said: "We never get tired of like practising and filming everything with our mentor. She's so kind to us. She's the sweetest mentor that we can have."
Pretending to be offended, Nick - who mentors the boys category - replied: "Unless you had me of course."

Gary 'Gaz' Beadle's ex-girlfriend Lillie Lexi Gregg has insisted there is no "bad" blood between them following their split.
The 'Geordie Shore' star took to his Twitter account last night (23.11.15) to confirm that he and Lillie are no longer together and she's now confirmed the news, claiming their "work commitments" were to blame for the split.
She wrote on Twitter: Just to confirm! Gary and I have split. We had the most incredible year and relationship! There is nothing and never will be anything bad Between us! Work commitments for us both and career directions have made us being together very difficult! (sic)"
Gaz also blamed his busy schedule for the demise of their relationship.
A representative for the 24-year-old hunk said: "Gary says he has the ultimate respect for Lillie but the challenges of his career and associated travel are not conducive with having a relationship. There is no third party involved."
Writing on Twitter, Gary added: "Single again... Want to wish Lillie all the best for the future.. Was an amazing year.. (sic)"
'Geordie Shore' fans are now keen to see Gaz reunite with co-star and former flame Charlotte Crosby following his split.

Jamelia is happy she's been voted off 'Strictly Come Dancing' because now she can focus on Christmas with her daughters.
The 'Loose Women' panellist was forced to quick step it home after she lost her fifth dance off to Peter Andre, but she's insisted she's happy to have more time to prepare for the festive season with her two girls Teja, 14, and Tiani, 10.
Speaking about her exit on 'Loose Women' (24.11.15), the 'Superstar' singer said: "It's absolutely fine. I'm happy. I'm gonna go and buy a Christmas tree this week with my girls."
Jamelia's departure from the show was hit by controversy after she claimed the competition had been fixed so that Peter wouldn't be voted off.
However, she's claimed she doesn't blame the 'Mysterious Girl' hitmaker and admitted she enjoyed her experience on the whole.
She explained: "There has been a huge backlash and a lot of people on Twitter having been raving about him saying he should go home but Pete is lovely.
"Pete is not behind the decision making process and I don't think he should bear the brunt of any of this.
"Also I would like to say I don't want what happened on the weekend to overshadow my experience. I had a brilliant time. It was fantastic. A great opportunity. I made some fantastic friends and I'm glad that I did it."

Charley Webb has filmed her last scenes for 'Emmerdale' before going on maternity leave.
The 27-year-old actress took to Twitter to reveal she had wrapped up filming for the ITV soap until after she has given birth to her second child with co-star and partner Matthew Wolfenden.
She wrote: "And that's a wrap...... filmed my last scenes today for a while. Perfect last day with my favourite @HordleyJeff (sic)"
Meanwhile, Charley - who already has five-year-old son Buster with Matthew - previously revealed she would prefer it if her character, Debbie Dingle, didn't go out on a "dramatic" storyline.
When asked by BANG Showbiz how she would exit the show for her maternity leave, she shared: "I don't know. I've got no idea how I'm leaving at all ... She's had quite a traumatic time so it will be nice to just have a little bit of a quiet time.
"There's been so much drama around her character recently so I'm sure there will have to be something to get her out because obviously her family's there and her businesses and all that so yeah, something not too dramatic."

Steven Moffat thought the 2015 Christmas special would be the last episode of 'Doctor Who' he'd ever write.
The showrunner has revealed he decided to bring back River Song (Alex Kingston) for the upcoming episode because he was emotionally drained after saying goodbye to companion Clara Oswald (Jenna Coleman) and thought this might be his own farewell.
He explained: "We've just lost Clara, so I didn't want to go straight into a new companion. I'll be honest, I brought River Song back in because I thought there was a possibility I'd never write it ['Doctor Who'] again so that's be my goodbye. But also, I really fancied it. I hadn't written River for a couple of years and I'd missed her. I thought, given that I'm knackered at the end of a series, what would be a treat for me would be getting Alex Kingston back in to do 'Doctor Who'."
Moffat says the Christmas special will have a much lighter tone than the end of the current series.
He told Radio Times magazine: "It's towards the comedy thriller end of the 'Doctor Who' market. It's light, and quite emotional at the end. The big deal is Doctor No 12 encountering River and vice versa. It's strange because they're now, in our human terms, the perfect couple. They're both sexy older people ... Now, yeah, they could actually be married. It works.
The 54-year-old producer added that although it's a Christmas special, there's not much of a festive feel to it.
He added: "It's a great romp for Christmas day but there's not a lot of Christmas in it. It starts with a big bit of Christmas at the beginning and then we ignore it and go off on a chase, really, with Mr. and Mrs. Who. If you're a long-term fan of the show, you might be interested because there's been a lot of talk about the Doctor and River's glory years but we've never seen them. Here at last we see them as Mr. and Mrs. Who at the height of their powers. It's great fun."

Aidan Turner is expecting the "knives to be out" for the second series of 'Poldark'.
The 32-year-old actor - who plays hunky Captain Ross Poldark in the BBC drama - is prepared for criticism when the next instalment airs next year.
He said: "Knives can be out for a second series, especially when we got so much support for the first series ... So next year, regardless of the quality of the show, people will tend to go, 'Let's knock you down a peg or two.'
"And that's understandable. But the scripts are strong and the performances are all there, so we have every confidence that we're going to produce something great."
The 'Hobbit' actor is also gearing up to star as Philip Lombard in an adaptation of Agatha Christie's 'And Then There Were None' and insists the roles are very different from each other.
He added: "I play Philip Lombard, who's a gun for hire, a mercenary ... To play a Ross Poldark kind of character and then to jump to Lombard is interesting, because they're very different people, and their moral compasses are very different."
Meanwhile, Aidan also revealed he was keen to get rid of the hairstyle that his 'Poldark' character has become synonymous with.
He told Radio Times magazine: "Yeah, I guess I was ... I want to keep that look for Ross, and doing a movie where you have long hair and you're trying to style it differently just doesn't work. Plus, you can't get away with hair like that in real life!"

Louis Walsh thinks Simon Cowell has "f***ed" up with the current series of 'The X Factor'.
The 63-year-old music manager - who was axed as a judge earlier this year - has confessed he thinks his close friend and former colleague has ruined the show by making too many changes.
He said: "I'm glad I'm not on it this year as the ratings are down.
"Simon has messed with it too much. It was an experiment that didn't really work.
"He used to blame me. He'd say, 'It's your fault, people are fed up looking at you'. But it's not my fault, it's his. He's f***ed the show.
"We get on well, so I don't care. I'll tell him what I think. I don't give a f**k any more because I'm not on the show. Every now and then we'll talk about it on the phone late at night."
Louis was rumoured to be making a return to the show at some point this series but he's claimed he'd only come back if hosts Caroline Flack and Olly Murs were given the boot, as well as judges Nick Grimshaw and Cheryl Fernandez-Versini.
He told Star magazine: "If I did go back, my God, I would have started up! But I don't want to be seen on this series. I'd only go back when it's fun and with people I liked.
"If I'm not in 'I'm A Celeb' next year, I could be back on 'X Factor'.
"I'd bring back [former host] Dermot O'Leary -- and then all the viewers! Dermot was a safe bet. He wouldn't have got anything wrong.
"I'd take my old seat back [where Nick Grimshaw sits]. Nick is fine but he's a radio person. It's not his fault he's been thrown in at the deep end.
"I think Cheryl and Rita are similar in the way they mentor. But Rita is a great singer and she knows how to perform."
Louis concluded by admitting that while he's a fan of Louisa Johnson and Che Chesterman and thinks Reggie 'N' Bollie are "fun", he thinks 4th Impact "should go back to the Philippines".
