Corontion Street’s Gemma Winter is one of the funniest characters to have ever walked the cobbles, and she often has us in stitches with her funny one-liners and hilarious antics.
However, things are about to get serious for our favourite funny girl as she finds out she’s pregnant with Chesney’s baby!
Here’s everything you need to know about Dolly-Rose Campbell, the actress who has played Gemma for the past four and a half years…
1. She was only meant to be in Corrie for six episodes!
Gemma first arrived on the cobbles on October 1, 2014 as an old friend of Kylie Platt. She was soon getting herself into trouble with pal Callum Logan as the pair terrorised the Platt family together.
However, viewers discovered that behind that big mouth and brash dress sense lies a heart of gold, and Gemma very quickly became a firm favourite with the fans.
Although bosses only initially signed up Dolly-Rose for six episodes, they saw her potential, and asked her to stay for longer. And she’s still in Weatherfield almost five years later!
