Former Coronation Street star Shobna Gulati found herself in a state of panic after getting locked in the loo and almost missed her appearance on C4’s Steph’s Packed Lunch
Coronation Street star Shobna Gulati found herself in a state of utter panic after she locked herself in a toilet backstage at the Channel 4 show, Steph’s Packed Lunch.
The 57 year old star, who played Sunita Alahan on the ITV show between 2001 to 2013, was later freed by actress Hayley Tamaddon. The pair were appearing on the popular talk show to discuss the tour of their musical, Everybody’s Talking About Jamie
Awkwardly, the pair emerged after a while and Hayley who also starred in Corrie as Andrea Beckett, told show host Steph: ” Do you know she got locked in your toilet earlier today, we’ve had a great morning honestly. She got locked in the loo, it was brilliant, we’re lucky she’s here. I had to use a credit card to unlock it.”
Never one to miss a hilarious moment, Hayley documented the embarrassing incident on her Instagram account for the world to see. Shobna, who was killed off in the soap ten years ago sported a very different appearance to that of her charcter. Talking to Steph, Shobna proudly showed off her grey locks which framed her face.
