  • Sian Reeves Reveals Why She's Right at Home on The
    _________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Pulse Records Limited in association with Bill Elms present SIAN REEVES REVEALS WHY SHE’S RIGHT AT HOME ON THE COBBLES OF WEATHERFIELD AND BY THE WATERS OF LIVERPOOL Most actors would be serenely content to have landed a fantastic storyline in one of the country’s leading soaps - but for stalwart Sian Reeves, there will be no time to sit back and relax as this February sees rehearsals begin for the UK premiere tour of Helen Forrester’s, By The Waters Of Liverpool. But first, having already graced our screens with stints in Eastenders and Emmerdale, Sian is about to send shock waves around Coronation Street when she rolls up as Charlie Wood, the deluded wife Tim Metcalfe didn’t know he had. Charlie and Tim got married after a boozy holiday fling in Las Vegas, which he assumed was a spoof wedding. He was wrong, and is now mortified to realise the drunken ceremony in which he and Charlie got hitched years ago was, in fact, the real deal. Fearful of being charged with bigamy, Tim tracked Charlie down and asked for a divorce. But he gets more than he bargained for when she turns up on the street... Sian explains: “Charlie Wood is a sweet girl. When they meet up again, Tim never mentioned being married to Sally and all the attention he lavished on her, just to get a divorce, makes her think he is in love with her. Consequently, she feels really humiliated when Sally confronts them - so she runs off without signing the papers.

Maar Liverpool, gelegen aan de rivier Mersey is méér dan de geboorteplaats van deze wereldschokkende muziekgroep.

Zij wil het vibrerende poëtische klimaat van deze stad ervaren. Sinds het eind van de jaren negentig heeft Liverpool een Biënnale. Insiders beweren dat sindsdien het kunstklimaat weer bruisend is, dat kunstenaars niet meer massaal wegtrekken en dat het niveau van de lokale kunst omhoog is gegaan.
