She has enjoyed playing the role of Eva Price since 2011, but now Catherine Tyldesley is preparing herself for an emotional goodbye to Coronation Street.
The 34-year-old blonde has been sharing several throwbacks in the last few days as she prepares to film her final scenes on the cobbles.
Today she treated her 383,000 Instagram followers to an epic throwback which showed her behind the bar of the Rovers Return Inn.
However, she looks rather different in the snap as the feisty barmaid is sporting curly red hair.
Mum-of-one Catherine simply captioned the photo: “#throwback … when Eva went red! #Celticbabes.”

Of course, she was inundated with compliments from fans who desperately don’t want her to leave the ITV soap.
“Very Jessica Rabbit!! Love it,” one person commented, while another added: “Stunner gutted ur leaving corrie.”
A third person wrote: “Will miss you greatly on Corrie. You are my favorite.”
Catherine’s sexy redhead picture comes just two days after she shared a throwback of her and Michelle Collins.
The snap showed her cuddling up with Michelle, 57, who played her on-screen mum Stella for three years, and she captioned the post: “Can’t believe I have three filming days left…
“The final count down… here’s a #throwbackthursday of me and me mam @michelledcollins.”
Once again, fans were quick to comment on the post and begged her not to go.

“I’m going to miss you but I wish you all the best,” one user commented.
Another pleaded: “Plzzzzzzz dnt go I only watch it cuz of you.”
Catherine announced she would be leaving Corrie in December 2017, penning a statement that read: “Coronation Street has been a dream job for me which is why this was such a difficult decision to leave.
“Eva has been such fun to play over the last seven years, and who knows, one day she might storm the cobbles of Weatherfield again.
“In the meantime I’m excited about the future, new acting projects, and spending time with my family.”
