She demanded a meeting and pushed for a better deal for her brother.

Dee-Dee will also reconnect with former homeless man Stu Carpenter and she agrees to take on his case in upcoming scenes.

Revealing what Corrie viewers can expect from the character, the actress told Manchester Evening News: "She's a bit of me! Dee-Dee's going to bring a lot of fun, a lot of chaos – but in a good way, hopefully!

"Dee-Dee is organised chaos, is how I describe her. She bursts into any room she's in, she's a big personality but she's really hard-working. She's a great lawyer, she knows what she's doing."
