Beverley Callard aka Liz MacDonald from Coronation Street - Biography
Beverley Jane McEwan (née Moxon; previously Atkinson, Sowden and Callard; born 28 March 1957) is an English actress, best known for her role as Liz McDonald in ITV's Coronation Street, and Flo Henshaw in BBC Three's Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps.

Bev made her television debut (as Beverley Sowden) in the Yorkshire Television soap Emmerdale Farm as Angie Richards in 1983. The following year Bev played Gail and Brian Tilsley's friend June Dewhurst in Coronation Street. Other roles followed including parts in Hinge & Bracket: Dear Ladies, Hells Bells, Will You Love Me Tomorrow and The Practice.

In 1989, Bev agreed to return to Coronation Street in a new and more significant role - that of Liz McDonald. She joined Charles Lawson, Nicholas Cochrane and Simon Gregson, who played the other members of the McDonald family. Her first appearance in the role was aired on 27 October 1989.

Bev's character of Liz McDonald has since had to endure being a battered wife, a kidnap victim, harassed mother and unfaithful wife. Almost 20 years after her first appearance, she is still a regular character in the show, although she did take a break (with a few brief re-appearances between) during the late 1990s and early 2000s.

Bev left Coronation Street in November 1998 to concentrate on her other career as an aerobics instructor and to spend more time with her family. She has released books and exercise videos called Real Results, Rapid Results, Ultimate Results and Lasting Results. She also appeared on GMTV and This Morning and has had a fitness page in the Daily Mirror. In 2001 Beverley was cast as Flo Henshaw in the BBC Three sitcom Two Pints of Lager and a Packet of Crisps and continued in the role for 4 years. During this time she also guested on Sky One's Mile High. In 2003 she returned to Coronation Street and now provides much comic relief as the long suffering mother of Steve McDonald (not to mention much-disapproving mother-in-law to Becky Granger) and friend to Deirdre Barlow.
