Martin Hancock became one of the Street's most iconic characters of the 1990s. He played Spider, the eco-warrior nephew of Corrie stalwart Emily (played by Eileen Derbyshire). Here he reveals what it's really like to work with one of the show's most private stars - Eileen is often referred to as the Greta Garbo of British TV and rarely if ever gives interviews. In a light hearted interview, Martin talks candidly to Ashley about his spell in the world's longest running TV drama serial.
