About Laura Wright

Laura Wright is a fictional character from the British Channel 4 soap opera Brookside, played by Jane Cunliffe. The character debuted on-screen during the episode broadcast on 6 April 1987. Laura is introduced as part of a new yuppy couple, alongside Jonathan Gordon-Davies. Cunliffe was invited to audition for the role and had three screen tests before she was successfully cast. Pinner was cast later and was required to screen test with Cunliffe before being chosen to play Jonathan. Laura is characterised as "a bright intellectual" and an "aspiring career woman". Laura and Jonathan are both portrayed as solicitors; they are introduced together and purchase 9 Brookside Close from Heather Haversham, begin decorating the house and plan their wedding. Writers introduced Laura's on-screen family consisting of her parents, Geoff Wright and Dorothy Wright and her sister, Joanne Wright. Writers developed the characters via their wedding preparation stories. Their wedding ceremony formed the basis of the show's 500th episode. Writers kept the outcome of the wedding a secret from viewers, playing into Laura's initial indecision but the two characters marry. Writers played Laura as a "stroppy" character who is often mean to Jonathan and Cunliffe enjoyed playing a "horrible" character.
