----- might get Eileen's "brain" working

With all Eileen has experienced and witnessed regarding Phelan ,still the penny hasn't dropped. Deep down she doesn't want to see the reality of what the guy is capable of. The only time she'll wake up is probably when Phelan turns on her, which I'm sure will happen eventually , heaven knows when though.

Nicola's behaviour before she left for Australia (which was a lie) should at least get Eileen thinking and if Nicola took Eileen to her mother's neighbour to explain it might get Eileen's "brain" working

Ah, but that's the problem right there. Eileen doesn't have a brain

My guess is somewhere towards the latter half of 2023 or 4.

. Just about tie in with Anna's release from prison then, and maybe Tyrone coming out of his current comatose state.

Coronation Street star Nicola Thorp has hinted at a dramatic labour scene ahead for her character Nicola Rubinstein.

Pat Phelan's daughter is currently expecting Gary Windass's baby after they had a one-night stand last year.

We all know that soap births rarely run smoothly, and speaking to Digital Spy on the newly-extended Corrie set this week, Nicola teased that this one will be no different.

She explained: "As you can imagine, it's soap. It's not going to be a straightforward birth by any means.

"I've heard rumours about how it happens, but we'll see. It's got to be soon!"

Asked about how she's preparing for the big scene, Nicola laughed: "I love watching One Born Every Minute anyway. I think the funniest thing about One Born is how the man in the room responds.

"I just can't wait to see who will be in the room with Nicola at the time – will it be Gary? Will it be Dev if she starts giving birth in Alahans' and has to be rushed to hospital?!"

Hit play above on our full video chat with Nicola, to see her also speak about Pat Phelan's comeuppance and an unexpected new storyline coming soon for her character.
