Originally, Sue resumed her role from the 1980s for a short stint of a few episodes but bosses were so impressed they brought her back for a bigger run.

And now with her contract coming to an end, soap producers have convinced her to stay long-term.

“I absolutely love playing her, and I have just signed a new contract that will take me to April 2022,” she said, according to Metro.

“When I first came back, I never imagined I would be around for that length of time and I am delighted.

“Every day when I drive into work, I have a big grin on my face. I am so happy to be here. When I get to work with new people I haven’t worked with before that I have watched on screen, I am so excited.”

Sue added that Debbie is “such a fun character to play” and she “reacts differently with different people”.
