Sally Ann Matthews (born 19 September 1970 in Oldham, Lancashire), is a British actress known for roles as Jenny Bradley in Coronation Street and as Sandra Briggs in Emmerdale.
TV roles
She played Jenny Bradley in Coronation Street, the daughter of the villainous Alan Bradley, a role she played from 1986 to 1991, making a brief return in 1993, and reappearing from February 2015. In 2005 she joined the cast of Emmerdale as farmer's wife Sandra Briggs, but left less than a year later. In a recent interview with Inside Soap, the show's executive producer, Kathleen Beedles, admitted casting Matthews, well-known to soap fans from Coronation Street, in what would essentially become a minor role was a mistake. She also confirmed she would like Matthews to return to the show in some capacity in the future.
Matthews has appeared in the following television and stage productions:
Film
- Brassed Off as Waitress (1996)
- Song for Marion as Playground Monitor (2013)
