CORRIE Stars Helen Flanagan and Lucy Fallon have reunited after years away from the cobbles.

The stars, who played Rosie Webster and Bethany Platt respectively, are taking part in a celebrity edition of the BBC One game show, Pointless.

Lucy Fallon joined the long-running soap in 2015

Helen, 32 first appeared on Coronation Street in January of 2000 as the daughter of Sally Webster (played by Sally Dynevor) and Kevin Webster (played by Michael Le Vell).

She initially stayed on the soap as a long-running cast member until her first departure in 2012.

She later returned for a brief one year stint as the fan-favourite character in 2017.

Helen went onto achieve considerable success in her role on the six decade-old soap, being nominated for the award of “Best Dramatic Performance from a Young Actor or Actress” at the 2006 British Soap Awards.

She was also nominated for “Villain of the Year” a year later, loosing out to her co-star Jack P. Shepherd.

Meanwhile Lucy Fallon made her professional acting debut on the soap, playing the role of Bethany Platt.

The blonde bombshell first appeared on the long-running serial drama in 2015, when she was cast to play the 14-year-old character.

The actress, who was aged 19 at the time took over the role after it emerged that the actress who was originally chosen for the part had lied about her age.

But Helen and Lucy, who appeared on the cobbles at the same time in 2017 have officially reunited on screen as they took part in Celebrity Pointless.

Taking to Instagram, Helen shared a trio the scenes snaps onto her feed showing the pair smiling on the gameshow set.

The former actress captioned the post: “Lovely fun day with my babe @lucyfallonx ?

In one picture, the two stars can be seen smiling with the shows host, Alexander Armstrong, 52, and Richard Osman, 51.

26-year-old Lucy glowed as she was seen wearing a skin-tight burgundy cotton dress as she showed off her growing baby bump.

In September, the actress announced that she is expecting her first child with footballer Ryan Ledson, after suffering a miscarriage earlier in the year.

This comes after Helen split with her long-term partner of 13 years, 33-year-old Scott Sinclair.

The news emerged three days after Helen was seen dancing with a mystery man at a friend’s birthday party — and only a few weeks after she finished filming ITV’s I’m A Celebrity All Stars in South Africa.

Helen, 32, and Bristol Rovers footballer Scott, 33, started dating in 2009 and share three children together.
