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