- Angela Bruce (born 1951) played Dawson's Cafe waitress Janice Stubbs on Coronation Street between August and October 1978. Born in Leeds with a mixed-race parentage, she was put up for adoption at the age of three. "Bruce" is the surname of the couple who adopted her and raised her in Craghead, a small mining village in County Durham, regarding the North East as her home. At the age of fifteen she trained as a nurse, largely because it was her sister's profession, but failed her exams, and, after seeing a touring version of Hair in Newcastle, decided she wanted to become an actress. In 1975 she came to notice in the BBC television series Angels.
