Awww doesn't she look cute as this picture - on the left - taken from 2000 (courtesy of a Helen Flanagan blog) shows. Helen, who celebrated her 10th Anniversary on the show on January 23rd as Rosie Webster has certainly transformed from the shy young girl to the saucy minx she is today.
"I've grown with her although I'm nothing like her. She's gone through so many changes, from being a little girl through her gothic phase and falling in love with Craig, to going off the rails."
Having taken over the role from Emma Collinge, Helen said her first day on the Corrie set was an emotional one. "Sally Whittaker, who plays my mum Sally Webster, was like a real mum to me while we were filming.
"She came up and gave me a really big hug. I feel so lucky to be in Coronation Street and to have been given the opportunity to grow up as part of such an amazing institution."
Last week, Helen Flanagan confessed in an interview that she had a crush on former co-star Richard Fleeshman who played her boyfriend Craig Harris. "He's so nice and so beautiful, and I had this huge, painful crush on him. I think all the girls did though because he is so, so charming and stuff."
