CORONATION Street star Jennie McAlpine has revealed she is six months pregnant and is planning to pick another soap-inspired name for her new baby.

Jennie, best know for portraying Weatherfield’s Fiz Brown, already has two children, Albert, eight, and Hilda, four, with husband Chris Farr.

Now the family will be welcoming their fifth member in April.

She said: “I can probably guarantee that whatever the name we choose, it will have been a character in Corrie. I don’t know how to avoid it.”
