Coronation Street Star Helen Flanagan Says She'll Never Do Reality TV

A Promise She Can Keep?

Coronation Street actress Helen Flanagan has revealed she would never want to appear on a reality TV show.

Her character Rosie Webster is set to dump boyfriend Jason Grimshaw as she leaves the Street to star in a raunchy new reality show as part of her quest for stardom.

But the soap star insists she won't be doing the same now she is leaving the cobbles.

Helen told Inside Soap magazine: "I couldn't do a programme where you're being watched 24/7 like Big Brother or I'm A Celebrity."

She added: "I would like to learn a new skill, so Strictly Come Dancing would be good - but I can't dance at all, so it's very unlikely I'd do that!

"Oh, and there's no way I could be in Dancing On Ice. It would be far too terrifying!"

The 21-year-old actress has been playing feisty Rosie since she was nine years old and has revealed she is leaving the show so she can free herself of the character.

Helen said: "Now I just want to be Helen. It's time for me to be myself..."

Rosie will be taking part in the show which Helen describes is "a bit like The Bachelor", in which she will have to compete for the attentions of man, so she has to dump Jason to be single.
