For those of us missing Liz McDonald, take heart. She'll be back on screen in Coronation Street on March 14th after visting son Andy in Spain. And, according to Inside Soap magazine, Steve and Becky will be heading to Spain to visit Andy too, leaving Lloyd in charge at the Rovers Return. But if Lloyd thinks running a pub's a doddle, he hasn't banked on warring barmaids Tracy Barlow and Tina McIntyre.

But, I digress. What this post is really about is that when Liz does return to Corrie, big Jim McDonald follows her and turns up on screen a week later, March 24.

The magazine says that Jim has a 'shocking suggestion' for Liz and I'm guessing it's not 'do you not think yer shud let yer hem line down a wee bit, Elizabeth?' Let's hope that Liz's leaving storyline for Corrie gets her back together with big Jim and the two of them can go off and live happily ever after, Ulster Fry style. Right after Jim's punched out Owen's lights.

Thats still 6 weeks away. She's had a lot of time off. I wonder if it was while she was in hospital with depression

[Scarlett.]

Nope, she was on Loose Women

[Kerry]

Oh right. I thought the depression stuff was a while back but wasn't sure how far back

[bbfan1991]

Something is suspicious about the time she's had off considering Liz could have left by now?, could be an innocent explanation but I suspect a falling out with producers maybe...

[Smithy]

She hasn't been on Loose women in ages though :/ /sad

And Jim's disappearance was rather odd too, they shoulda explained it better

[flamingGalah!]

As I have mentioned previously, I don't think Bev fell out with producers, otherwise she wouldn't be back to film her departure at all, she would have been written out totally off screen...

I think either she was using up her leave allowance or she had time off for another un-sinister reason...

I hope they get back together!

[bbfan1991]

Elizabeth leaving with Jim would be a fitting end, they've always been on and off but this time for keeps it would be bittersweet!

[Scarlett.]

I hope they leave together too then come back together in future reappearances
