She discussed her most cherished storyline, saying: “I can’t think of a specific one but you know just stepping into her Dingle side.”
Katie added that viewers will witness Sarah embrace her family’s notorious traits: “You’ll see a lot more of that this year and doing fun things like that is what I enjoy the most. I’ve enjoyed all the stuff you’re going to see this year.”
Sarah has found herself embroiled in intense plots throughout the years, including grappling with Fanconi anemia (FA), a condition that casts doubts over her longevity compared to others in the village.

Katie expanded on this, commenting: “I think throughout my time of playing Sarah she’s had moments where she goes a bit reckless and she sort of thinks ‘I don’t know how my life is going to pan out’ so I’m going to live life however I want.”
Her character’s struggle sometimes leads to unpredictable behavior: “She sometimes forgets that it might come with a few consequences but it plays a part in way she sometimes is reckless sometimes. I’m enjoying some of the stuff showing her more vulnerable side but she’s such a fun character to play.”, reports Leicestershire Live.
