"Coronation Street&amp;#039;s Chris Gascoyne has praised co-star Jane Danson ahead of the British Soap Awards. The actor, who portrays Peter Barlow in the Weatherfield-based soap, told TV Times magazine that Danson&amp;#039;s portrayal of Peter&amp;#039;s wife Leanne has raised the bar for her fellow &amp;#039;Best Dramatic Performance&amp;#039; nominees. Gascoyne and Danson have been at the centre of a number of dramatic storylines this year, including being caught up in the devastation of the show&amp;#039;s 50th anniversary tram crash. Danson was later voted by her fellow cast mates as the best actress in the live episode. &amp;quot;Jane upped the game this year, massively. I can honestly say, she&amp;#039;s possibly the best actress that I&amp;#039;ve ever worked with,&amp;quot; Gascoyne said. He continued: &amp;quot;I love to come into work and do scenes with her because we never know what&amp;#039;s going to happen. She always gets left out of everything, but this year she isn&amp;#039;t, and I think people recognise how good she is.&amp;quot; Danson was similarly supportive of Gascoyne, who is up for the &amp;#039;Best Actor&amp;#039; honour at this week&amp;#039;s awards. &amp;quot;I think Chris is one of the best actors in soap, period, whether he&amp;#039;s got good stuff to do or he&amp;#039;s just going to the shop for a pint of milk,&amp;quot; she explained. The British Soaps Awards ceremony will take place in Manchester on May 14. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
