Dame Maureen Lipman’s History
Corrie spoilers reveal that Lipman’s debut as Evelyn Plummer in 2018 was not the first time the actress was in the ITV soap opera. Back in 2002, she appeared in six episodes as Lillian Spencer. Evelyn is spunky, a genuine spitfire and we love her no-nonsense attitude. She’s definitely rough around the edges, which makes her relatable and real. Even though she isn’t “soft” like some other characters, she is a fan-favorite.
