IT has been just four years since Catherine Tyldesley left the role of Eva Price – but fans wouldn’t have recognised her yesterday.
The actress, 38, looked much older than her age as she was photographed filming in Manchester.
Catherine was seen in socks and sandals and wearing a pink fleece, a white T-shirt and a long flowery skirt.
Making her further more unrecognisable from her glam self, she also had a pair of 1980s-style glasses held together in the middle with a plaster.
She was out in the sunshine as scorching temperatures swept much of the UK.
The only clue that it was her came when Catherine took off the specs and put in a pair of chic dark sunglasses instead.
