How old is Beverley Callard? What’s her background?

Beverley Callard (née Moxon), 61, was born in Morley, Yorkshire, on March 28 1957.

Her father Clive was a baker and her mother Mavis was a concert pianist.

She left school in 1973 and took a job as a shorthand typist.

Beverley made her TV debut in Emmerdale Farm as Angie Richards in 1983.

Beverley made her first appearance in Corrie as Liz McDonald on October 27, 1989.

When did Beverley Callard start playing Liz McDonald on Coronation Street?

Beverley made her first appearance in Corrie in 1984 as Brian Tilsley’s friend Gail.

She then returned with the more significant role of Liz McDonald on October 27, 1989.

She remained on the soap until November 1998.

Callard had brief stints on the soap after leaving, but returned on a permanent basis in October 2013.

The Corrie character is mother of twins Steve and Andy, and grandmother of Amy Barlow and Oliver Battersby.

Liz is probably best known for working in the Rovers – she started off as a barmaid in 1991, but became landlady and licensee in 2006 when Steve bought the pub.

After a stint as a receptionist at the medical centre she’s now returned to pull pints at the Rovers.

She’s currently coming to terms with the return of her ex-husband Jim McDonald (Charles Lawson) following his release from prison and her ‘daughter’ Hannah who’s trying to scam her.

She’s been in more things than just Corrie

In 2000 she played Barbara in the BBC sitcom The Peter Principle.

In 2001 she was cast as Flo Henshaw in Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps.

She also starred in an episode of 60 Minute Makeover, appeared as a contestant on the 2010 series All Star Mr & Mrs, and was the subject of a 2014 episode of Piers Morgan’s Life Stories.

What has Beverley Callard said about her battle with depression?

In 2017, Beverley opened up about overcoming depression after being plunged into a downward spiral when her medication was discontinued.

She took a two-month break from Corrie in 2016 after “sliding” into a downward spiral when her medication was discontinued.

In an interview with Yours magazine, the TV favourite admitted she’s a “perfectionist” and “people pleaser” who tends to put a lot of pressure on herself, but she is “really well” these days after finding a new medication that works for her.

She said: “I’m really well, and feel like I’m back to normal.”

“I have to be sensible – I’m a workaholic and have to try to relax more, which I don’t find easy.

“Overcoming clinical depression is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to do.

To achieve her kick-ass figure, Hayden – who plays cheerleader Claire Bennet in Heroes – follows the ‘quartering’ rule. She eats only a quarter of the food on her plate, then waits 20 minutes before deciding whether she needs to eat again.

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”

Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
