“So I’ve got them all lined up and I’ve got the wardrobe door open like the [ partition] and I’m going, ‘Come in number 2, what’s your name and where do you come from?’ and doing all that.
“We were being really loud for ages and then the phone rang and I was like ‘Here’s our Graham with a quick reminder’.
“But it wasn’t Graham, it was the hotel manager and I got kicked out of the hotel. True story. Rock and roll!”
Sheridan now has her heart set on playing another of her icons. She said: “I would love to play Dolly Parton. I’d have to lose some weight here [ around my waist] and get massive knockers.

I think I’d cry if I met her.” Sheridan is on ITV tonight at 9pm.
