Ena Sharples
Ena Sharples (née Schofield) was one of the original characters from the British soap opera ''Coronation Street'', played by Violet Carson.
==Development==
Ena appeared in the series for 20 years between 1960 and 1980, was the caretaker of the mission hall and spent much of her time criticizing the activities of the street's other residents. She was one of the main characters during the 1960s, she was featured less regularly in the 1970s, due to the declining health of actress Violet Carson, and was written out in 1980. Almost always wearing a double-breasted overcoat and hairnet, she spent much of her free time in the series' early years with her two cronies, Martha Longhurst (Lynne Carol) and Minnie Caldwell (Margot Bryant), in the snug bar of The Rovers Return Inn, drinking milk stout. Ena particularly criticized Elsie Tanner (Pat Phoenix), whom she believed held a loose set of morals. In turn, Elsie strongly disliked Ena for her seemingly incessant gossip and desire to know about the private lives of others, and the two confronted each other frequently.
The final episode featuring Ena was broadcast on 2 April 1980, it attracted little media or public attention as the producers intended her to continue in the series - the character was merely going to stay with a friend, Henry Foster, in St Annes while her flat in Coronation Street was being renovated. Unfortunately, all subsequent storylines involving Ena had to be scrapped owing to Carson being diagnosed with pernicious anemia, forcing her to retire from acting.
Violet Carson died on Boxing Day 1983 at the age of 85, thus putting to rest any rumours of Ena's return. Following her departure in 1980, no further mention of Ena was made and it was assumed she had moved to St Annes permanently. The first reference to her was made in the 1985 spin-off video "The Jubilee Years" when Ken Barlow revealed that Ena died "a couple of years ago". Also, in 2010, a short online video titled "Ken: A Life On The Street" confirmed that she was no longer alive when Ken Barlow (William Roache) told his grandson Simon (Alex Bain) that she was "long dead now." The canonicity of these films is debatable, but the former explanation is generally considered to be canon, possibly being a reference to Violet Carson's death.
