Corrie's Nina a world away from soap as actress Mollie Gallagher reveals glam look on the red carpet

She's known and loved for her role as cafe worker Nina Lucas in Coronation Street.

But actress Mollie Gallagher looked a world away from Roy's Rolls as she swapped fhe cobbles for the red carpet at the Royal Television Society North West Awards.

The star dazzled on the red carpet at The Point at Old Trafford in a chic black mini dress.

Mollie, who has played goth Nina in Coronation Street for two years, channelled classic Hollywood style in elbow length gloves with cute bow detail.

And she added character in abundance with an adorable heart-shaped handbag and edgy stack heeled shoes.

She completed the look with red lippy and a choker necklace.

Mollie, 24, has been a standout star on the cobbles in the last year as the long-running drama tackled a horrifying hate crime storyline.

Nina and her boyfriend Seb Franklin were set upon and attacked by a gang of vile teens led by Corey Brent in May because of Nina's goth identity.

Seb died from his catastrophic injuries the following day in a story inspired by the real-life story of Sophie Lancaster who died after being attacked by a group of teenage boys in 2007.

Mollie joined the soap as Nina, the niece of Roy Cropper, in 2019 and quickly became a regular fixture.

Fans fell in love with her Victorian goth style and no-nonsense attitude.

Kym Marsh and her new husband Scott (Dave Nelson)

Earlier this month Mollie shared her stunning new hairstyle as she had her usual jet black, curly locks chopped right up to her shoulders.

And it was also drastically changed into a two-tone hairstyle with chunks of ice white blonde framing her face.

Seb and Nina's attack is up for Best Continuing Drama Storyline at the awards along with Corrie's coercive control story about Yasmeen and Geoff Metcalfe and Hollyoaks' far right radicalisation and male depression storylines.

Joining Mollie on the red carpet was her co-star Sally Carman who plays Seb's mum Abi.

Sally looked totally different from her mechanic character in a shimmering festive green dress with coral red lipstick.

And former Corrie star Kym Marsh was beaming alongside her new husband Scott Ratcliff.

Kym, who married parachute regiment army major Scott last month, was all smiles in a pretty polka dot black dress worn with metallic strappy heels alongside her man who looked smart in a black three piece suit and red tie.
