Phyllis Pearce
Appearance
Phyllis Pearce (née Grimes) was a character in Granada Television's Coronation Street, played by Jill Summers, between 1982 and 1996. Originally touted as a new Ena Sharples, she was seen interfering in the life of grandson Craig who lived with his grandad Chalkie Whiteley at number 9. After they moved out, Phyllis switched her attentions to old soldier Percy Sugden who she hoped to snare as a husband. She purused him for years, even playing him off against another suitor, Sam Tindall. Despite her age, Phyllis found regular employment in the café and also cleaned for Des Barnes. She was last seen in 1996 and has not been mentioned since.
