Coronation Street blunder as actor slips up and uses co-star's real name on air
During the latest episode of Coronation Street one soap star had an awkward blunder during the hit ITV show.
An awkward slip-up occurred in the latest episode of Coronation Street when actress Sally Carman, who plays Abi Webster, accidentally referred to a fellow character by their real name during a scene.
The blunder went unnoticed by the show's editors and made it into the final broadcast. The gaffe took place at the Rovers Return Inn during Christina Boyd's Bingo night, while Abi was grabbing drinks at the bar from the landlady Jenny Connor and viewers noticed the slip up.
Instead of saying "Cheers, Jenny" she mistakenly said "Cheers, Sal" instead of calling her character's name. Sally accidentally used Jenny's real life name, which is Sally Ann Matthews, reports Leicestershire Live.
One fan was quick to notice the error, as another spotted that Sally Ann Matthews seemed to flash an understanding smile following the name blunder.
They took to X, which was previously known as Twitter, writing: "I'm crying, does she say 'cheers sal' and they kept it in?" while another fan replied: "Yes she does!!!"
As another noticed Sally's reaction, penning: "That's too funny! And it looks like Sally (Jenny) genuinely smiled like she caught it."
Although the fans seemed to see the funny side to the blunder, as one said: "I AM DEAD" as another agreed simply stated: "BIAHAHAHAH."
Meanwhile, in the same episode, Jenny Bradley uncovered Christina's scheming and successfully exposed her attempted theft in front of the pub's patrons.
After Christian's deceptive act was uncovered, the police were called to the scene leading to her arrest as her friends and family looked on, stunned.
Following closely after this event, viewers will witness the departure of Daisy Midgeley, played by Charlotte Jordan and the daughter of Christina.
Charlotte has portrayed Daisy for four memorable years, and has had many memorable moments on the iconic cobbles - storylines which have fans constantly gripped.
Daisy's journey has been defined by pivotal moments - including a miscarriage, a hidden pregnancy, and the return of her estranged mother - which have shaped her journey, culminating in her exit from Weatherfield.
Charlotte even hinted at her plans to depart the soap last year, stating she was eager for a new challenge and a different adventure from the cobbles.
Daisy's final scenes are scheduled to air tonight, May 2.
A source claimed to The Sun, stating: "Charlotte's decision to quit Corrie was leaked at a time when the show was going through a bit of a crisis.
"When the news broke the narrative was very much, she's moving onto bigger and better things which raised quite a few eyebrows on set."
The insider continued: "No one ever wants to leave in the back of a cab, but that's exactly what's happening with Charlotte.
"They're not killing her off, but she leaves after burning all her bridges with step-mum Jenny Bradley."

The ITV2 dating show returns tomorrow night with a batch of sexy hopefuls all looking for love. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 5 Maya Jama is set for a showstopping entrance as she kicks off the new series 5 The TV presenter is spotted on board a luxury yacht in a swimsuit 5 Aerial shots showed the yacht heading towards the island And presenter and TV favourite Maya, 30, is back with a bang. She makes a showstopping entrance on a luxury yacht before heading into the villa to greet the newbies. The new snaps show Maya looking glamorous as always in a multicoloured swimsuit and matching headband. The TV star wore her brunette tresses sleek and loose and accessorised with a pair of gold statement drop earrings. She was seen relaxing at the front of the yacht in the one-piece swimwear. In one photo, Maya posed for selfies as her hair blew in the wind, while aerial shots showed the yacht heading towards the island. It comes after ITV revealed its first bombshell - and it's a good one. Soon-to-be Islander Toni Laites will be joining the line-up. The American star, 24, is set to enter the Mallorca house as the first bombshell of this year's series – and is ready to bag a British boy as she believes they're "more polite with better manners" than their American counterparts. Love Island 'reveals' first bombshell as Maya Jama gets special message from new Islander in surprise twist But ahead of entering the villa, Toni shared that she is also battling an illness that leaves her in agonising pain. She said ahead of entering the show: "I have ulcerative colitis. I had to go to hospital the same week as my senior prom. "They told me, 'You can't go' and then they said, 'Surprise, you're going to prom!' "Nothing that exciting happens in Connecticut, so it was a big deal and a few articles were written about me." "What I hope people see from me being on Love Island is that not all illnesses are visible," she added. "It doesn't have to hold you back, you can travel etc…I live my life day-to-day like anyone else." The show's boss, Mike Spencer-Hayter, previously teased there would be a huge week one twist that has never been seen before on the show and hinted that it could relate to this year's bombshells. The latest news is likely to spark speculation that each impending bombshell could be from overseas. He told The Sun: "Something big is coming in week one. We've got a really big week one planned. It's hard to say what we're doing without saying it. "It's not a celebrity. We've not seen it before.' Mike added that changes will be noticeable from the very start of the series. He said: 'There will be things happening for the first couple of days we've not done before and certainly in week one. During that week, there's something incredibly big we've never done before. 'Hopefully we can do it. It's quite experimental. I just think you can't rest on your laurels, being like, 'This is really popular.' 'We have to keep it exciting and tear up the rule book a bit.' Mike also revealed that producers have broken with tradition by planning further ahead than usual. He said: 'We've mapped out two weeks, which we don't usually do, to be honest. So we've got two weeks planned and one very, very big thing that's never been done ever on Love Island. Globally.' Mike recalled telling ITV's head of media relations about the twist, teasing: 'I told Justin what we're doing, and I never usually tell people, and you were like, 'What the f**k?' You were very excited.' Love Island returns Monday at 9pm on ITV2 and ITVX 5 US beauty Toni Laites will be joining the line-up as the first bombshell

She's joined by Ben Barnes in the series, as former police officer Tim Jameson, and Martin Freeman's son Joe, as main character Luke Ellis, a super-smart 12-year-old with telekinetic abilities.

He joked: 'I felt intimidated landing in Canada. I didn't know anybody on the whole continent.' The Institute airs on MGM+ from July 13. Prime Video will air a series of documentaries about some of the UK's most high-profile true crimes.

And it's not because the actress, who is the ex-wife of Liam Gallagher, was worried about sharing the behind-the-scenes of her life on the Hayu series. Advertisement Surprisingly, it's because she reckons her life is too boring. Patsy told me: 'I did have a meeting with them, but I live in my little flat in London with my cat, my sons have flown the nest, and I don't think my lifestyle would stand up to these women. 'I wouldn't fit with them - but I'm a huge fan and I love the show, Real Housewives of Cheshire's Dawn Ward is one of my favourites, I'm a superfan of hers.'

Chatting to TV Biz on the set of ITV's Celebrity Catchphrase, Stephen revealed a secret behind Roy's famous 'It's good… but it's not right' saying, which he'll never emulate. Stephen said: 'The reason he used to say that is he never used to wear an earpiece to the production team. Advertisement 'So the floor manager would give him a thumbs up if the answer was right, or a thumbs down if it was wrong. 'So to give him more time, Roy would go, 'it's good..' wait for the floor manager to go down or up… then 'but it's not right' or 'and it's right!'. Which is amazing, really, isn't it? 'I find it fascinating that Noel Edmonds, Roy, Bruce Forsyth, all those legendary performers and presenters never wear earpieces. 'They just don't like it. Brucie never did it, even on Strictly.'
