EastEnders star Michelle Collins takes savage swipe at Coronation Street after her forgotten stint as Stella Price
EASTENDERS actress Michelle Collins has taken a savage swipe at her former job on Coronation Street.
The soap icon recently made a return to EastEnders as Cindy Beale having previously believed to have died in the 90s by her friends and family.
Having actually been in witness protection, Cindy made a triumphant return to Walford last summer and has been wreaking havoc ever since.
However, during her twenty-five absence from the BBC show, Michelle switched the Square for the cobbles for a three-year stint as the landlady of the Rovers on Coronation Street.
She played the role of Stella Price between 2011 and 2014 on the ITV soap.
However, despite having her fair share of dramatic stories, Michelle appeared to make a dig at the programme as she insisted she had 'forgotten' she had been a part of it.

The revelation came during a fan exchange on X - formerly Twitter.
It all unfolded as one fan said to Michelle of her EastEnders return: "I only started watching eastenders again when you came back and all the storylines have been brilliant. Also I’m waiting for you to be queen of the vic with George."
Quipping back to say that she would not be asked to have a 'role' behind the bar, the star replied: "Thank you but I m not good with props , I worked in the #oldvic @bbceastenders years ago I got sacked for breaking too many glasses."
Then another fan quickly jumped in to remind Michelle of her previous legacy running the Weatherfield boozer for over three years.
They said: "You worked in the Rovers. Lol."
Adding a crying with laughter emoji, she appeared to throw shade at her now-rival soap, quipping: "Forgot!!!!!"
Her post comes just days after she was caught up in a passport nightmare.
The 61-year-old took to X to plead with airline EasyJet to let her fly home after she was left stranded in Malaga after losing her passport.
Michelle wrote on X: "Please @easyJet can you help me I have lost my passport at Malaga airport, the police ( I have been there ) say it is up to the airline to let me fly home.
"My flight is at 8:30 pm tonight, I am heading to the airport having just left the police station . Thank you Michele x."
Hours later, the star updated fans with a tweet that read: "Thank you most of you for your helpful comments.
It caused the star to miss her return date to filming on the BBC show after the festive break.
