Amanda Barrie (born 14 September 1935, Ashton-under-Lyne) is an English actress. Born as Shirley Anne Broadbent, Barrie attended St Anne`s College, St Anne`s on Sea. She then trained at the Arts Educational School in London and later at Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. She appeared in pantomime as a child and was a dancer before acting in a number of British television and film roles in the 1960s and 1970s. She was also in two of the Carry On films, a long-running series of British comedy films; she had a supporting turn as a cab driver in Carry On Cabby (1963) and took the title role in Carry on Cleo (1964). Barrie is well-known for her role as a caf� proprietor`s wife, Alma Sedgewick (later Baldwin), on Coronation Street. She was a bit-player in the early to mid-1980s before she was offered a contract in 1988, after which she became a very well-known character. She continued in the role until her retirement in 2001. In the story, Alma was diagnosed with cervical cancer which later caused her death. Since leaving Coronation Street, she continued to act in the popular ITV1 prison series, Bad Girls, playing inmate Bev Tull from the fifth series to the last, along with Phyl Oswyn played by Stephanie Beacham. In 1967 Barrie married theatre director Robin Hunter, and stayed with him until the mid-1980s; the couple had no children and never divorced; he died in 2004. She is currently in a relationship with the crime writer Hilary Bonner, after coming out as bisexual in her autobiography, It`s Not a Rehearsal.
