British
actress.
Tina O'Brien was born on the 7th August 1983 in
Rusholme,
Manchester, England.
Tina has appeared in several TV dramas, including The Cops (
BBC),
Childrens Ward (Granada), Factory (BBC) and Clocking Off (BBC), but she is most famous for her role as
Sarah-Louise Platt in
Coronation Street, a role she has played since October 1999.
As Sarah-Lou, Tina has been part of two top-line stories - the first her
pregnancy at age 13 (a role which won her critical acclaim from within the industry and in the media), and most recently her relationship with an
internet chatroom paedophile, which highlighted both her acting talents and her maturity and
sexuality.
Away from the cameras, Tina likes listening to
rock music and has passed her
driving test. As for her future? - "I'd like to do any kind of film really except
nakedness - definitely not for me!"
Shame...
