Coronation Street star Sally Dynevor received an MBE from the Princess Royal at Windsor Castle for her services to the ITV series.

The actress, who has played Sally Webster in the soap opera since 1986, made her television debut a year earlier in an episode of police drama Juliet Bravo.

The Altringham actress shared her "shock" after being made an MBE in the Queen's 2020 New Year Honours list in recognition of her services to drama.

Despite the fact that Sally, 58, is currently a contestant in the 2022 series of Dancing On Ice, she is still continuing to film Coronation Street.

Other investees set to attend the event include Sir Antonio Horta-Osorio, who resigned as chairman of global banking giant Credit Suisse in January following an internal investigation into allegations of breaching coronavirus rules.

The executive, who is also a former boss of Lloyds Banking Group, was knighted in June 2021 for his services to the financial sector, as well as his voluntary work for mental healthcare and culture.

Teachers, emergency service workers and military officers will also be recognised in the ceremony, with several honoured specifically for their response to Covid-19.

A total of 61 recipients have been invited to be given their honours in person.
