She's provided much of the glamour on the cobbles, so Helen Flanagan made sure she went out with a fashionable bang today.

The 21-year-old said goodbye to her alter-ego Rosie Webster after 12 years on Coronation Street.

The actress couldn't hide her smile as she popped into town in Manchester on a break from filming her last scenes.

She braved the cold in a chic black Chanel beanie, oversized wrap coat and thigh-high black boots.

She carried her belongings in a massive white handbag.





Helen simply wrote on Twitter this morning: 'Last day at Coronation Street.'

Yesterday she said: 'Just got home from Christmas Shopping in Manchester #thoughfulmeaningfulgifts. Can not believe its my last day at work tomorrow!'

She added: 'Tonight will be my last night with my Coronation Street Scripts Much love'

The actress endured the laborious task of cleaning out her dressing room, and tweeted a picture of an exciting discovery.

She said: 'Look what I brought back from my dressing room clear out... My first ever designer handbag.'

Helen is leaving the show to be with her footballer boyfriend Scott Sinclair.

She will move to Wales where Scott plays for Swansea City.

The actress has been plagued by panic attacks this year, with one causing her to run out while filming, but she says they did not affect her reason to leave.

She told Hello! magazine she couldn't grow as a person anymore.

Although she also admitted she felt some of her characters storylines were a little risque.

She said she was nothing like budding model Rosie in real life.

'I like that she's confident, whereas I'm reserved and shy.

'I can hide behind her. She's funny and sweet too. I didn't enjoy playing her when she went through a promiscuous phase. Luckily she shows more heart these days.

'But I'd give her some advice and tell her to calm down a bit. She is fiercely ambitious and worships power and money.'
