However, her friendship with Peter Kay has led to rumours that the Bolton comedian could also be appearing in Everybody Loves A Winner as a bingo caller.
Speaking to the newspaper about her role, Lindsay revealed that she has been a fan of the numbers game since her student days.
"I was a student in Hull and I played bingo all the time with my mate … Incredibly, when I went to register as a member at the Mecca they still had my old address from 15 years ago."
Running from July 1st to August 1st, Everybody Loves A Winner will form part of this year's Manchester International Festival.
