Angie Freeman
Played by: Deborah
McAndrew
Appeared: 1990 - 1993; 1 December 1996 - 10 April 1998
Angie moved into Nș7 to share with Jenny
Bradley, into the room vacated by Flick
and Joanne Kahn. She was a free-spirited student studying
Design at University and a woman who knew her own mind. In March
1991, Curly Watts moved in and
they quickly became very close - but more as brother and sister
than lovers, until one night when they had too much red wine and
ended up in bed together. Both regretted it the next morning,
but Curly always hoped that their relationship might develop into
something more than mutual.
After graduating, Angie was short of work, and worked unhappily
for Mike Baldwin, and more happily
for Hanif Ruparell. She found
another soulmate in Des Barnes,
but went on to have a rather confused and painful romance with
Neil Mitchell.
When she left Weatherfield for
Mexico in March 1993 to study Aztec design, she left behind a few broken hearts.
In December 1996 she called back on Weatherfield as a designer
for Kbec - much to the annoyance of her former boss, Mike Baldwin,
but Kbec troubles meant that by the following March they were
both no longer in Kbec's employ. Angie returned to Weatherfield,
and rented Des Barnes' house whilst he was on his canal barge,with
the intention of setting up her own business.
