Coronation Street Spoilers – Tina Hobley Played Holby City As Nurse Chrissie Williams

After Corrie Tina went on to play nurse Chrissie Williams in the medical drama Holby City. Which has led to some confusion between reel life and real life at times!

“It happens a lot,” says Tina, “I get people saying ‘Chrissie, I’ve got back pain, come and have a look … It happens in the street, in shopping centers, even in a queue for a ride at an amusement park – and I left Holby seven years ago.”

But does the gorgeous star think she would be a good nurse? “If I was your last chance I’d have a go,” she laughed. “I think I could pull off a tracheotomy with a Bic pen ….”

Tina is now a DJ on Smooth FM. When she found out that, “Holby and Casualty were offering equipment to the NHS, it made me proud…Our equipment was state of the art. The advisers on set said we’d only have to disinfect it and we could open up for patients.” Now there’s an idea!

“We were pretend-doctoring, the real angels are people like my therapist friend who volunteered to go back to the NHS front-line after thirteen years. They make our job look so slight and silly.”
