It may be end of an era for the McDonalds on Coronation Street as they wave goodbye to the Rovers Return but Beverley Callard is delighted about the challenges facing her character.
Liz will be leaving the pub next week after she and Steve recently decided to sell up and it's sure to be an emotional moment for all involved.
Peter Barlow and Toyah Battersby will be taking over at the Weatherfield boozer, while Liz gets a fresh start and a new job at the local medical centre.
"Instead of turning left in the studio, now I just turn right. It's great for me as an actress, as Steve and Liz end up living together in the flat above Streetcars," she told Inside Soap.
"We're getting some proper McDonald scenes and they're so funny! I can't tell you much, apart from Steve is with a woman and Liz doesn't see any chemistry.
"She tells him: 'Steve, she's a nice girl, but if she doesn't put a snap in your celery, she isn't worth having.'
"And then Liz goes: 'I've seen more romantic kisses at Liza Minnelli's last wedding!' They do write some classics for Liz!"
When asked if Liz will find love again, Callard replied: "Oh, I hope so! I think she may be about to, but how long it will last I don't know.
"Our boss Kate Oates told me she'd cast someone hot and I said: 'You better!'"
Coronation Street continues on Wednesday, July 5 on TV3.
