Former Coronation Street star Julie Hesmondhalgh has said that the late Anne Kirkbride was "an absolute one-off" and "totally irreplaceable".
The actress, who played Hayley Cropper on the soap, starred alongside Kirkbride for 16 years.
Kirkbride passed away in hospital on Monday evening following a short illness aged 60.
Hesmondhalgh spoke about her sadness at the news of Kirkbride's passing during an appearance on ITV's Lorraine today (January 21).
She said: "It was a real shock. I think it's just sinking in for people now by the look of it. I was so glad that everyone got sent home yesterday.
"Coronation Street is such an amazing cast and crew, and actually at times like this they're at their absolute best - they all stick together and look after each other so completely. I can only imagine what the feeling is there. It's such a huge loss.
"The crew will be devastated. They got more hugs off Annie than anyone else! The famous Annie hugs lasted a long time - we often had to hold up filming for them while she went round the entire camera crew!
"She was always so welcoming. When new cast members and crew members came in, she'd always ask them what their star sign was as soon as they came in. Then she'd always say, 'We'll get on very well!' Her star sign seemed to get along with all the other ones in the zodiac!
"I know the writers loved writing for her. There's nothing that she wouldn't do. She was a complete professional. I don't think I ever heard her lose a line. She was always right on time, doing it absolutely brilliantly - but off screen an absolute one-off, totally irreplaceable."
