Coronation Street icon Tina O’Brien has left us baffled by revealing her bizarre habit in a new Instagram story.

The Sarah Platt actress took to the social media platform to reveal that she was out walking her dogs, but that the people around her had been given her weird looks – and it soon became clear why.

Walking through a wooded area, Tina revealed that she was carrying a full mug of tea with her!

‘Does nobody else love tea that much that they’ll actually bring a brew out in the car with them?’ She asked her 527k followers.

‘This is standard for me,’ she added.

Tina, we have so many questions!

Bizarre dog walking habits aside, it’s been a busy year for Tina, who has played on-screen alter ego Sarah since 1999.

Her character has been involved in some huge storylines in the past few months, including the return of abuser Nathan Curtis (Chris Harper).

Following Lauren Bolton’s (Cait Fitton) disappearance, Bethany Platt (Lucy Fallon) spotted Nathan among the crowd during the reconstruction of her last known movements, and was instantly horrified.

Bethany grew determined to prove that Nathan had something to do with Lauren’s disappearance, to the point that Sarah and her other family members grew concerned for her well being.

In a bid to keep him away, Gary Windass (Mikey North) attacked him, before Sarah later visited him in hospital to offer him a large sum of money to drop the charges and stay away from Bethany.

When that plan failed, Sarah took drastic action by planting evidence in Nathan’s van to suggest that he had been involved in Lauren’s disappearance, and he was soon arrested.

More recently, Sarah has had to explain herself to DS Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) after police found out about the money she had given Nathan.

Will the true extent of her plot to get rid of Nathan come to light?
