Wendi Peters hints at Coronation Street return

Wendi Peters reveals that she would be happy to reprise her role as Cilla Battersby-Brown on Coronation Street.

Wendi Peters has suggested that she is open to playing Cilla Battersby-Brown again in Coronation Street.

The character appeared on the cobbles between 2003 and 2007, departing for Las Vegas after meeting a wealthy man at a nursing home.

Cilla made a brief return in 2014, where it was revealed that she is now living in Wolverhampton and suffering from osteoporosis.

Fiz and Chesney, Cilla's children, have remained firm fixtures on the street, with the latter recently becoming father to quadruplets.

"If a lovely storyline came up and I popped back in for a little while, it'd be nice," Peters said in a virtual tea party for the Guide Dogs. "But I'm so busy work-wise.

"It would be quite fun now they've got quadruplets to have the mother from hell to look after them."

Peters has been performing on the stage in the last few years and had been on a tour of the John Cleese-penned Bang Bang! before the coronavirus pandemic hit.
