Coronation Street actress Shelley King never understood why she found last-minute script changes and unexplained plot twists difficult to adapt to when she was at work. While her fellow cast members seemed to accept them without batting an eyelid, Shelley often found them upsetting and frustrating. But after she was diagnosed with autism at the age of 67 last year, things fell into place and she spoke to the show's producers who offered to find ways to help.
