Coronation Street fans have launched an online petition in a bid to get fictional character Yasmeen Nazir out of jail. The character, played by Shelley King, is facing trial for attempting to murder her abusive husband Geoff Metcalfe, portrayed by Ian Bartholomew, because she stabbed him in the neck with a broken bottle - but it was in self-defence after months of torment and abuse.
