‘I’m far too difficult’ Corrie star Susie Blake on why she hasn’t dated since 2000

She said it was a “young man’s game” or for middle-aged people at least, something she is now “past”.

Reflecting on the differences between TV and theatre acting, Susie said the latter was more physically demanding, but that it was easier in that she can tell a story “from beginning to end” in one shift. 

Conversely, while filming a television show, Susie said actors have “15 episodes in [their] hand at a time”, which makes the work “really difficult and really mentalling exhausting”.
