The August 30, 2024, episode of Coronation Street marked the end for a rather entertaining character – Beth Tinker. It was sad to see her fall off the canvas, but as the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. The actress, Lisa George, too seems to have taken her exit in her stride.
The spoilers confirm that Beth Tinker left Weatherfield due to wicked Kit Green’s incessant blackmailing to end her son Craig’s career. Seeing no other choice in sight, Beth put the town in the rare-view mirror. This also marked the end of the journey for her portrayer Lisa George on the soap.
Lisa George took to her official Instagram account to share a goodbye message with her fans. “Never did I think all those years ago that two episodes would turn into over a decade of my life on screen, but in the blink of an eye it’s passed like no time at all,” she wrote reminiscing the 13 years she has played Beth on the soap.
