Katie McGlynn looks worlds away from Corrie role in forgotten Waterloo Road stint

Katie McGlynn looks worlds away from her Coronation Street role in snaps from her forgotten Waterloo Road stint.

The Sinead Tinker actress, 29, is best known for her role in Corrie, but younger soap fans may recognise her from her Hollyoaks stint as Becky Quentin.

And others may know her as Jodie “Scout” Allen in Waterloo Road, a role she was at the helm of from 2011 until 2013.

Sharing two snaps from her on-screen school days, Katie wrote: “Major throwback… I honestly owe so much to @waterlooroad and Ms Jodie ‘Scout’ Allen – the TV role that started my career and one that I’ll never forget⁣ …

“Even if they did make me ride a BMX, dye my hair an awful brown colour and cover it in grease!”

One snap saw her as Scout when she first arrived in Waterloo Road looking younger with darker hair, and the other photo saw her looking more polished with blonde hair towards the end of her stint.

She went on to say that she grew up on the show and worked alongside “so many wonderful humans”.

“To have those storylines at that age as an actor was a dream and I learnt so much! Seeing it back on our screens is bloody wonderful – the team have done such a great job of bringing it back to life and it’s great to see lots of familiar faces,” she concluded.

Fans were quick to comment on the post, with many calling for Scout to make a return amid the Waterloo Road revival.

“Despite ALL OF THAT she was iconic. Petition to bring Scout back starts here?” penned one.

“Would love a Scout return,” said another.

While a third added: “Loved you in Waterloo Road (even the hair) and every thing you’ve done since. You’re a very fine actress.”

In the snaps of Katie as Scout, she looked very different to how she does today.

These days Katie can be seen looking very glamorous with long blonde hair and a very chic makeup look.

Coronation Street airs on ITV1 and ITVX.
