Coaching him , Bernie advised Alec to show a willingness to assist , and not to refer to the man and his colleagues as " faceless tyrants " , or any other colourful labels he ' d been using . At the meeting , Alec learned that the tax people didn ' t think he ' d been declaring all of his earnings , but they were not specific on the matter . Blaming the meeting ' s disastrous outcome on Bernie , who had provided very little help to him , Alec deemed the accountant as being more concerned with keeping his own nose clean . However , Bernie had made clear to Alec that he was only there as an intermediary , and that contrary to Alec ' s comments about the tax man trying to blacken their names , it was only Alec they were after . Due to attend a follow - up meeting with the tax inspector , Alec frantically tried to think up undisclosed earnings he could " remember " . Dismissing Bernie as an accountant who couldn ' t do his sums , Alec went alone to the meeting , where the Inland Revenue informed him that Newton & Ridley had disclosed his earnings as their leisure co - ordinator , going back on their agreement with Alec to file his work for them under unspecified entertainment expense . Facing a prison sentence , Alec called Bernie for help , although Bernie was too busy to attend a follow - up meeting .

Sarah Lancashire Sarah Lancashire was born on 10th October 1964 in Oldham , Greater Manchester . Her father was writer Geoffrey Lancashire who contributed seventy - five episodes of " Coronation Street " and two episodes of " Pardon the Expression " . One of twins ( the other being Simon , one of her three brothers ) , she trained as an actress at the Guildhall School of Music & Drama . She married Gary Hargreaves in 1985 with whom she had two sons but their marriage broke apart after ten years . While working at Granada she met director of programmes Peter Salmon who she married in 2001 and they have since had a third son as well as her being stepmother to Peter ' s three sons from his previous marriage . She first appeared in " Coronation Street " in November 1987 as Wendy Farmer , a nurse and prospective lodger for the Duckworths , much to Jack ' s delight but understandably less so Vera ' s . In January 1991 she reappeared in the programme as Raquel Wolstenhulme , a dizzy shop worker and a part that was only supposed to last a few weeks but was recognised by the production team as having more mileage . The writer ' s enthusiasm for the character and Sarah ' s brilliant interpretation of the scripts soon made her a firm favourite with viewers in the 1990s and her popularity soared . This led to her appearing in more and more episodes and although she has stated numerous times that she is grateful to the " Street " and enjoyed her time working on it ( particularly acting opposite Kevin Kennedy who played screen husband Curly Watts ) , she found the demands of the role exhausting and disliked the attendant publicity she garnered , being quoted as saying , “ It ’ s a goldfish bowl and I do not want to live my life in the public eye . ” She left the programme in November 1996 , appearing just once more in what is generally reckoned to still be her most famous part in January 2000 but has stated several times since that she will never return to the " Street " . She has subsequently had probably the most successful career of any of the ex - regulars of the programme , appearing in a myriad number of film , stage and television roles , gaining several awards for her acting and was also nominated for a BAFTA award for her television directing debut " Viva Las Blackpool " in 2004 . She continues to appear regularly on television . External links . Wikipedia page for Sarah Lancashire
