Coronation Street star Jane Danson has rubbished rumours that she helped her husband land a role in the soap.
Earlier this month, it was announced that the 29-year-old's husband Robert Beck will be playing Tony Gordon's (Gray O'Brien) old friend Jimmy Dockerson.
The actress - who plays ex-hooker Leanne Battersby in the Weatherfield soap - told New!: "He was cast in the normal way, and it was nothing to do with me. I'm so proud of the fact he's joining. He's been in Emmerdale and Brookside, so he's earned this."
Beck appeared in Brookside as Peter Harrison between 1991 and 1993 and later assumed the role of Gavin Ferris in Emmerdale. His other acting credits include Waterloo Road, The Bill and Doctors.
