Corrinne Wicks (born 26 April 1968) is an English actress, known for playing Dr. Helen Thompson in the BBC daytime soap opera Doctors, from 2000 to 2005, and Ella Hart in the ITV soap opera Emmerdale, from 2010 to 2011.
Wicks started her career in television as a casting assistant on such programmes as Prime Suspect, Dalziel and Pascoe and The Ruth Rendell Mysteries, before deciding to switch to an acting career. She trained at the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art from 1996 to 1998.
In addition to her appearances for five years in the daily Doctors, Corrinne has also appeared in several other shows including Harbour Lights, The Bill, Holby City, Grange Hill and played a barrister in Life on Mars. Wicks also appeared on the special charity "TV Medics" edition of The Weakest Link in December 2001 finishing in the final 3.
Wicks joined the regular cast of Emmerdale in November 2010 on a nine-month contract as Ella Hart, the ex-wife of Declan Macey. The character of Ella Hart gave Wicks the chance to be more provocative and flirtatious than many of her previous screen credits allowed. In June 2011 the short term contract was ended and Wicks's character was written out of the programme when Stuart Blackburn took helm as producer. However, the door has been left open for the character's possible return.
