An unearthed clip from an old episode of the ITV soap saw Carla talking to her bestie Michelle Connor (Kym Marsh) in the café while enjoying a cuppa.

In the scene, Carla got out her mobile phone to text her brother Aidan Connor (Shayne Ward).

However, the way she text on her phone had fans in stitches.

The actress slammed her thumbs on the screen so rapidly that it did not resemble texting or forming any sort of message.

Taking to X – formerly Twitter – one eagle-eyed fan joked: “the message she sent: sjsjsjsjssjsjkk”.

Another added: “Ha that’s how my wee ones at work (under 5yrs) think texting looks like!”

A third penned: “This texting Ali pls”.

Meanwhile, during a more recent episode of Coronation Street, it seemed that actress Sally Carmen-Duttine appeared to forget she was in character as Abi Webster.

The awkward blunder saw the character refer to their co-star by their real name.

The embarrassing error appeared to slip through the net with bosses not catching the pesky mishap before it went to broadcast.

Awkward moment Coronation Street character calls co-star by their real name in onscreen blunder – did you spot it?

In the scene, Abi propped up the bar at the Rovers and collected some drinks whilst at Christina Boyd’s Bingo night.

But, Abi accidentally called Jenny Bradley by the wrong name.

Having paid for her drinks, Abi could be heard saying: “Cheers Sal.”

Rather than calling her Jenny, she appeared to confuse reality and fiction and called Jenny actress Sally Ann Matthews by her real name.

 

Real-life soap couples

 

Soaps are renowned for their sweet and scandalous romances – but it’s not just in scripted storylines where love is blossoming. A number of our favourite small-screen actors have fallen for co-stars and soapland rivals when the cameras have stopped rolling.

Max Parker and Kris Mochrie

Despite playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner on Emmerdale, the pair never actually shared any scenes together. But the pair still fell in love after meeting on set. Max and Kris got together in 2020, moving in together later than same year and got engaged in 2022. In a sweet Instagram post, the couple confirmed they’re planning a 2025 wedding.

Beth Cordingly and Ian Kelsey

Beth, who plays Ruby Fox-Miligan, announced her love for her co-star Ian Kelsey, who played Dean Glover, shortly after she joined Emmerdale at the beginning of 2024. “I am very in love with Ian and very happy. I think it really does work him being an actor too. He has been so fantastic,” she gushed.

Laura Norton and Mark Jordan

Kerry Wyatt and Daz Eden actors Laura and Mark met on the set of Emmerdale in 2014. The couple, who got engaged in 2018, told Loose Women they spent a long time deciding whether they should “just stay as friends.” Although it seems they were meant to be and the pair now share two children together.

Zoe Henry and Jeff Hordley

Emmerdale favourites Zoe and Jeff, who play Rhonda Goskirk and Cain Dingle met at drama college in 1994 and have been together ever since. While working together might be too much for some couples, that’s definitely not the case for Zoe and Jeff. Zoe previously told The Sun: “Working on the same show as Jeff also helps because if one of us is having a bad day then the other will completely understand.”

Lesley Dunlop and Chris Chittell

Lesley and Chris are another Dales romantic success story. Unlike some of the other soap stars, the pair who play Brenda Walker and Eric Pollard, are together on and off screen, officially tying the knot in 2016. They also adore working together, but have clear home-work boundaries. “We make a point of not talking about Emmerdale when we’re at home, though – that would be just too sad, wouldn’t it?” Chris revealed.

Sally Carman and Joe Duttine

Abi Franklin and Tim Metcalfe actors Sally and Joe got together after meeting on the set of Coronation Street in 2017 and they tied the knot in July 2022. But unlike some of the Emmerdale stars, Sally and Joe prefer that their characters don’t interact much. Sally previously admitted it “would be horrendous” to work on a storyline with Joe because “he’s too funny.”

Anthony Cotton and Peter Eccleston

Sean Tully may have been unlucky in love on the cobbles, but in real life Antony’s met his Prince Charming. The soap star started dating long-term partner Peter in 2005, after they met when he was working as an assistant props buyer on Corrie.

Jane Danson and Robert Beck

Corrie favourite Jane Danson tied the knot with soap star Robert Beck in 2005. The actress, who plays Leanne Battersby, shares two children, Harry and Sam, with the former Brookside star. During their marriage, Robert has also done a stint in Weatherfield playing criminal Jimmy Dockerson.

Caroline Harding and Chris Gascoyne

Chris, who played pub landlord Peter Barlow, married soap star Caroline in 2002. Although she is best known as an Emmerdale star, Caroline did visit her husband at work when she did a two-episode stint as doctor on the Manchester soap in 2020. The couple share a daughter called Belle, plus two children, Pip and Freddie from Caroline’s previous marriage.

Nadine Mulkerrin and Rory Douglas Speed

Nadine Mulkerrin, and Rory Doulas Speed are known for their Hollyoaks alter egos Cleo McQueen and Joel Dexter. The loved-up pair got engaged on a December 2018 trip to Amsterdam – just over a year after they announced they were dating. They now share two kids, Reggie and Dougie.

Sophie Austin and Shayne Ward

Former Hollyoaks star Sophie, whose best known for playing villain Lindsay Butterfield, was introduced to singer and ex-Corrie star Shayne through mutual friends. She gave birth to their daughter Willow in December 2016 and they welcomed a son in 2022.

The blink-and-you’ll-miss-it moment appeared to slip by soap chiefs who kept the blunder in.

One fan who spotted the moment even suggested that actress Sally Ann smirked when she realised she’d been addressed by her own name.

The viewer wrote on X: “That’s too funny! And it looks like Sally (Jenny) genuinely smiled like she caught it.”

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 or stream from 7am on ITVX.
