Early-life:
Eva Pope was born on November 16, 1967. She began acting as a pupil at St Peter's secondary school in Orrell, Wigan, but was expelled from college for not attending lessons. Undeterred, Pope won a place at London's prestigious Webber Douglas drama school, and supported herself by waitressing, doing bar work and cleaning.
Career:
She made her name in Coronation Street as wickedly flirtatious Tanya Pooley before starring in a variety of TV series, including Grafters, Four Fathers, and My Fragile Heart. She was also cast in the lead role in Oscar-nominated live-action short film Holiday Romance. The sultry actress set pulses racing as nurse Claire Brightwell in popular ITV medical drama Peak Practice. Eagle-eyed fans will remember Pope from previous episodes of Peak Practice, in which she played minor guest roles in 1997 and 2000. She's also played no-nonsense prison warden Frances Myers in Bad Girls and headmistress Rachel Mason in Waterloo Road.
Quote:
"I have a lot of creative energy and get really involved in things. I'm not good at doing nothing."
