Coronation Street legend Liz Dawn, who played Vera Duckworth in the soap for more than 30 years, has died.
Her family said they were "devastated" after the death of the "incredible" 77-year-old.
They added: "She has been the love, light and inspiration in our lives and we are bereft at her passing."
Dawn died at her home, surrounded by her family, on Monday night. ITV said everyone at Coronation Street was "heartbroken" at the news.

One of the few actors on Coronation Street I would watch the show for.

Re: Liz Dawn: Coronation Street's Vera Duckworth dies at 77

We're all calling her Liz, but Elizabeth was a stage name, her real name was Sylvia!

I remember on one occasion having a drink with her and her husband. It was on the opening night of a bar after everyone else (including the manager) had gone home.

The lights in the ladies had been turned off and nobody could work out where the switch was, so I guarded the gents toilet door so that she could go for a pee
