Coronation Street bosses have denied rumours that Cilla Black has been approached for a role in the Weatherfield soap.

Tabloid reports have claimed that the 66-year-old has been asked "several times" to appear in the programme.

Despite allegedly turning down numerous offers, the iconic Liverpudlian singer went on to explain that she would relish the opportunity to film a cameo stint.

However, a spokesperson for the show this morning told Digital Spy: "No approach has been made to Cilla Black about appearing in Coronation Street.

"Cilla is incredibly famous and it would be difficult to see how she could appear in Coronation Street as a different character."

She could always turn up as a long lost love-child of Ken Barlow :shock:

The trouble is she can't act to save her life. She sounds exactly the same in everything she's ever done.

You're right there Dutchy - she wasn't too clever in the singing department either :lol:
