Helen Flanagan has admitted that she felt nervous when Coronation Street producers started to offer her grittier storylines.
The 18-year-old's character Rosie Webster has been pushed to the forefront with a number of dramatic plots on the ITV1 soap in recent years.
In 2007, Rosie was seen starting an affair with her teacher, John Stape (Graeme Hawley). More recently, the teen has disappeared in mysterious circumstances.
"It can be hard to get your head around it sometimes. I was a little bit jittery and I suppose it was difficult to take on at first," Helen told the Belfast Telegraph. "But I think it's important to stretch yourself as an actor and I've been learning so much as we go along."
Asked about Rosie's disappearance, Flanagan said: "It's actually all going to come out in a special episode, so all will be explained next Monday, it's a really big episode and there's going to be a lot of exciting storylines coming out of it.
"I can't wait to sit down and watch it because you only get to see your own scenes being shot so it'll be great to see it all come together. All I can say is I'm going to stay missing for another while yet."
