Katie said: “”I was just excited. I thought, whatever the outcome is, it is what it is and I’m just happy to play the role.
“So I’ve been really laid back about it all. Maybe I’m too laid-back!”
The soap was slammed for aspects of the storyline last week when Sinead was told she had the cancer.
As she broke down in the hospital corridor, viewers were disgusted by the scene that showed NHS nurses ignoring her sobbing.
One furious viewer tweeted the soap to say: “@itvcorrie Portraying Sinead distraught at the hospital…
“No nurse would just walk past without asking or checking if she was okay.. Disappointed for all those caring nurses that watched that episode. Bad call Corrie.”

Another added: “I would be devastated if the nurses ignored the distress my daughter was in #Corrie #Sinead could do better scriptwriters.”
A third said: “In real life if you was crying and panicking in a hospital corridor a nurse would say something.
“But in Corrie when Sinead ran out of the room crying they acted like she wasn’t even there? #corrie”
