Asked if she had ever been asked to return to the cobbles she said: “No … The show I was in doesn’t exist any more.”
She added: “Now do the next question – ‘Would you ever go back?’ No.”
Sarah was speaking ahead of her role in upcoming Channel 4 drama Kiri which sees her as Miriam – an experienced social care worker caught up in an child abduction case.
The Bafta-award winning actress said she was excited to be working in a time when drama was valued.
“There’s no constant. Drama will always ebb and flow, it’s just a particularly brilliant period of time to be an actor, because the way we consume drama has changed,” she added.
“We have different platforms, we have global platforms and co-productions.
“I think more than anything I just very privileged to be a part of my profession.
“I think I am very lucky because I love my job. I really love my job; I am very blessed, really, to be able to do the job I love.”
Kiri begins on Channel 4 on Wednesday January 10 at 9pm.
