'Ello duck! Coronation Street lesbians Brooke Vincent and Sacha Parkinson pose in the bath for sexy photo shoot

Since their characters began dating last year, Coronation Street actress Sacha Parkinson and Sian Powers have become one of the most famous lesbian couples... albeit fictional.

So as on-screen couple Sophie Webster and Sian Powers prepare to celebrate their one year anniversary this month, the soap stars who play them have marked it with a sexy photoshoot.

Rather appropriately, the teenage actresses have posed in a titillating shoot for lesbian magazine Diva, which sees them sharing a romantic bath together.

Showing their fun side,18-year-old Vincent puts a toy duck on Parkinson's head as they snuggle - apparently naked - in the tub.

In another shot, the two women look like they're about to kiss as they snuggle up on an ornate sofa.

And another image sees the pair reclining on a bed in their matching sleepwear.

In the accompanying interview, they talk about their 12 year friendship and how close they are in real-life.

Although Vincent has been on Corrie since 2004, when she took over the character of Sophie from child actress Emma Woodward, Parkinson joined two years ago.

Originally cast as the girlfriend of Ryan Connor (Ben Thompson), the character of Sian became best friends with Sophie, until their relationship progressed into a romance in Spring 2010.

Vincent was delighted when Parkinson, 19, joined the cast because they had originally been friends at drama school when they were six years old.

Parkinson recalled: 'We used to cuddle up in the car. We’d pull up and get dropped off by my mum and I’d go upstairs and Brooke’d be downstairs sat in my mum’s car being sarky like a 30-year-old woman.'

Vincent added: 'We’re like sisters. It’s mad because when Sacha came onto Corrie we kind of realised why we’d been friends all them years ago. Because we didn’t see each other for a bit, did we? We were on our way to KFC at dinner, before, and Sacha said, "Will we still know each other when we’re 30?" and I was like, "It’s mad, I hope so."'

Although Sian and Sophie's romance has been warmly received by the gay community, the two actresses are adamant they don't want more lesbian characters introduced to the Street.

Parkinson said: 'No! It would be good for the characters but for us - we’re selfish, so...'

Webster interjected: 'We like being the nation's two favourite lesbians.'
