Katie Redford – Coronation Street
There have been many that have been sacked from their role in a soap due to a misdemeanour but Katie managed to get the chop before she even got in front of camera.
She had been advised to say that she was 19, when taking the role of Bethany, the 14-year-old daughter of Sarah Platt.
When the truth came out that Katie was actually 25, her contract was ripped up and Lucy Fallon came in to take the role.
