I'm backing Bev to be Queen of Castle, so I am, says her Corrie ex-love Jim

Charlie Lawson, who plays hellraiser Jim McDonald, also warns her reality rivals not to play pranks on her, saying: “If you wind Bev up and you are in the wrong then she will let you have it in the neck.”

Ant and Dec revealed this week that Bev, who plays Liz McDonald in the ITV soap, was a vegan and would be given vomit fruit, fermented plums and fermented tofu instead of the meat-based horrors.
