CORONATION Street actress Jodie Prenger has admitted that she fears she could be axed from the show as part of the current serial killer storyline.
The actress, who plays Glenda Shuttleworth on the ITV soap, confessed she is fearful that the evil Stephen Reid could turn on her character which could mean she is sent packing from the cobbles.
Jodie spoke to Digital Spy about the current plot and how fans might see Glenda as one of Stephen's next victims.
The West End star said: "Glenda has never liked him – ever since he took that £10 note! She clocks it, doesn't she?
"I think Glenda goes on a gut reaction and I don't think she thinks he's good news.
"But the sad thing is, [in real life] he's one of the nicest people! Everybody asks that."

She added: "When you're talking about what's going on, they go: 'Oh, what's Stephen like?' He's just the nicest guy, he really is."
Jodie went onto admit that all the cast face worry that they might meet their end at the hands of the killer, saying: "Yeah, of course it's a worry – because you don't know what's going to happen! Imagine if he gets me? Everyone would have to say: 'Glenda was right!"
The actress joined the show last year and has settled into life on Coronation Street with ease.
She arrived as the brother of funeral director George Shuttleworth and soon found her place behind the bar of the Rovers Return.

Often there to lend a supportive ear to her brother, she may be required more frequently when Todd Grimshaw ditches his job at George's firm to move to rival, RestEasy.
Speaking to the publication of the upcoming story, Jodie added: "There is a lot of competition with our George and his funeral company.
"There is a bit of an absence of leave from our Todd – so Gareth [who plays him] goes on a wander. And I'm not happy about it, personally!"
Jodie will also be hoping for a personal victory after she was nominated for the Best Newcomer award at the Inside Soap Awards.
She also has the National Television Awards to look forward to where Corrie are up for the Best Serial Drama gong.
