Alan Halsall's wooden kisses

Alan Halsall's wooden kisses

Sunday, 21 June 2009

Alan Halsall compares on-screen kisses to cutting blocks of wood.

The 'Coronation Street' actor, who plays Weatherfield mechanic Tyrone Dobbs, says neither he nor his recently married wife Jucy Jo - who is also an actress and previously played the character Katy Harris in the soap - get upset when the other has to do love scenes.

He said: "Work's work at the end of the day. If I were a joiner, it'd be like cutting a piece of wood."

Lucy-Jo added: "We're not jealous of things like that. It's not nice doing kisses, but we know they don't mean anything. I'm always just thinking 'Please say cut!' "

Despite both of them being married to different people onscreen, Lucy-Jo said their acting experiences never prepared them for the real thing.

She added: "It's so strange when you get married for TV because it's all pretend. With my real wedding I'm just so excited, I can't stop smiling."

Alan and Lucy-Jo - who are both 26 - met on the set of 'Coronation Street' in 2002 and married at St Bertoline's Church in Barthomley, Cheshire on June 13.
