Shameless star Maxine Peake has come up with a new sewage plan to deal with an influx of actors at a new proposed 'rehearsal' place.

The Dinnerladies actress is seeking planning permission to convert a redundant barn and farm outbuildings at her country pad into a ceramics studio and rehearsal space.

The plans also include new sleeping accommodation and is expected to be used by fellow thespians.

Her proposal is currently under consideration by the council after one neighbour complained about potential noise - and suggested she rent out the village hall for £16 an hour instead.

But with the consultation period set to end this week, Peake and her Ukrainian production designer partner Pawlo Wintoniuk have now revised plans to change their current septic tank into a sewage treatment plant.

In her application, the Grade II listed property is described as not being connected to the main water supply. A new sewage treatment plant would have 'more capacity' than the existing septic tank, planning documents also show.
