Sue, who plays Eileen Grimshaw on Corrie, wowed fans with her age as she introduced herself in her initial VT last night.

Introducing herself, she told fans watching: "I've been on Corrie for nearly 23 years, it's a long time, I'm very old. I'm 59.

"I need to challenge myself to get out of my comfort zone, so this is my year of doing new things."

Viewers couldn't believe that Sue was approaching 60 - and took to social media to gush over her glam look and youthful skin.

"I love Sue! Also HOW is she 59?! She looks amazing," one wrote to Twitter, as another chimed in: "Sue looks great for 59."

A third added: "Sue looks f**king amazing for 59," as a fourth agreed: "Sue looks gorgeous, can't get my head around her being 59."

It comes after Sue teased her exit from the soap after 22 years.

The TV was busy filming her exit scenes for the soap right up until the last minute before flying to Australia for I'm A Celeb.

Sue has been a major star in the soap since 2000, with her character Eileen married to serial killer Pat Phelan.

It is not yet known if Sue’s exit from Corrie is a permanent one or not.

Asked about her preparations for the jungle, Sue told The Sun and other press: "No, I've been trying to get the scenes filmed that they needed filming at work before I came out here. 

“So my priority has been getting my proper work done before I headed out."

Sue admitted she has got some helpful advice from her Corrie pals who have previously appeared on I’m A Celebrity.

Her on-screen boss Simon Gregson, and neighbour Jennie McAlpine both took part in the show.

"I think they were quite surprised when they heard that I was going to do it,” Sue explained of their helpful advice.

“But yeah, I know. I've got their support behind me, which is a lovely thing. So yeah, I'm just raring to go now.

"They haven't told me to watch out for anything. They've just said that you just go and enjoy it and have a great adventure."
