Veteran Corrie actress gets one-year road ban following drink-driving offence
The 81-year-old, who plays Rita Tanner in the ITV soap, was caught over the limit after she drove to a police station to see her daughter who an hour earlier had been stopped for the same offence when the actress was a passenger.
Knox, of Mere, Cheshire, was given “firm advice” not to get back into her car when officers at Knutsford police station noted she appeared to be intoxicated. She was said to have been offered a lift home but declined and was seen get into a Jaguar at a supermarket car park.
