Former Emmerdale star whose husband played 'loathsome' copper in The Bill

You probably remember Corrinne Wicks from her stint in Emmerdale but you might not know her husband has also acted in some of the UK’s biggest shows.

Corrinne, 53, had a stint in Emmerdale from 2010 until 2011 playing Ella Hart - the ex-wife of Declan Macey. The character was known as being flirtatious and savvy with Ella being someone who doesn’t suffer fools gladly.

After Corrinne leaving Emmerdale, she’s appeared in Doc Martin and The Black Prince.

While, like so many other soap stars she popped up in a rival soap - enjoying a brief spell in Coronation Street.

You might also recognise from The Bill which is the show her actor husband Tom Butcher is most famous for.

Tom was in the famous ITV police drama as Steve Loxton for over 450 episodes. According to fans, his character was seen as 'loathsome Loxton' due to his arrogance and lack of patience with both suspects and victims.

Elsewhere, Tom has had parts in Doctors, Holby City, Heartbeat and Coronation Street.

Corrinne and Tom married back in 2005 after dating for some time previous.

Profiles of the couple have said they live separately with Tom being based in London and Corrinne living in Birmingham.
