Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor’s husband was accused of beating her after a co-star spotted her bruise make-up.
The actress’ character Sally was beaten up in prison with her being given a fake but very convincing shiner by the make-up team.
But when the show had to shoot out of sequence, it meant Sally had a bruise in court with a co-star who hadn’t seen the prison attack.
And then it all got a little bit awkward for the actress and her husband.
Speaking to Notebook magazine, Sally revealed: “Sally got thumped a few weeks back, so they gave me a bruise, and because we film out of sequence, the man playing the prosecuting barrister took me to one side and asked if I was OK.

“He thought my husband had been beating me up.”
On screen Sally will soon be sentenced after being set up for fraud by Duncan the conman.
But it’s not the first dramatic storyline Sally has been at the centre of.
Back more than ten years ago, Sally was diagnosed with breast cancer in a high-profile storyline designed to raise awareness of the disease.
However things took a twist when actress Sally was diagnosed with the disease in real life as her on-screen counterpart was going through the same.
Sally added: “It was a horrible thing to go through and I was upset it happened when I was doing the story, because it all felt really strange.”

She added: “I don’t want it to define me. It’s a little blip. There are good times and bad times in life. The bad times only make the good times even better.”
And she revealed she will be climbing to the base camp of Everest to celebrate a decade of being clear from the disease.
