In Monday night's episode, there was a scene in the cafe that opened with Tina Carter apologising to Marie for getting an order wrong.
"Don't worry about it," Marie tells her.
BUT THERE'S MORE.
Tina then remembers that she has to run out to collect her mum Sylvie's medicine, and so asks Marie to cover the rest of her shift.
"Can't someone else do it?" asks chatty Marie.
She then relents and says: "Okay go on, but just this once."
Fans were bloody delighted to see Marie finally get to speak.

OK! has a clip of the exchange if you want to watch it.
And if you've ever wondered why even the longest-serving soap extras rarely speak, there's a simple explanation, as we reported earlier this year.
If you're an extra on a soap, the amount you're paid can vary depending on what you're doing on screen. Extras, or "background artists", are usually paid a going rate of £84 but if they have to speak, this amount can increase by about £50.50.
Night shoots can also bump up an extra's pay packet as can a requested "special reaction". So keeping pay costs down explains why the likes of Marie and Tracey rarely say much.Explore more on these topics:
