Margi played Jackie on the ITV soap.

Before Corrie, Margi was in Brookside and the film Letter To Brezhnev. She was also in Casualty and a music video.

Margi presented her own show, Swank, and did stand-up comedy. She took her show to the Edinburgh Festival in 1994.

After leaving Corrie, Margi joined Family Affairs for a year. She was in the films Revengers Tragedy and 24 Hour Party People.

In 2008, Margi starred in the sitcom Benidorm as Dorothy, Gavin's mom.

In the nineties, Margi took a break from acting.

Margi took a three-year break after her mom died in 1995. She had a drinking problem and health issues.

Margi's drinking started in 1996 after her mom's death. It made her very sick.

Margi had a yeast infection, IBS, and blisters. She also had athlete's foot.

Margi said she was still grieving when she played Jackie in Corrie. She didn't do her best job.

In 2012, Margi worked in a pub.

Margi hasn't been on TV in years. Her last role was in 2014 in the comedy Puppy Love.

In 2012, Margi worked as a barmaid in Liverpool. She said every actor takes on other work when waiting for the next big job.

Margi said it's hard for her to get roles in theater because of her accent.

Margi said it's harder now because there are many young actors. There aren't many roles for older women from Liverpool.

Coronation Street is on TV from Monday to Friday at 8:30pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
