omg its been 4 months?!
Glad to see she is back to health and going back to work.
What was wrong with her?
I think she has some kind of emotional breakdown with having to shut down her pub and appearing on the street it just took it's toil on her. she need to take time off to give herself a break.
oh ok thats a shame :(
What the explanation on screen for her exit?
I think she went to Spain to see her son Andy, he is coming back for Steve's wedding soon. :)
So will she cring Andy back with her?
Does anyone else sense a fling between Liz and Jim in the upcoming months, as he is returning and it seems to be the only storyline Jim has ever had in Corrie.
I hope so :)
He never stopped loving her and she will always have a soft spot for him, so I would like them get back together :love:
But it so predictable these two getting back together, for Liz to realise it was a mistake.
She loves him deep down I feel and we all know how he feels about her!
Wonder what she will make of Poppy's sacking? :hmm:
She will be upset as Poppy was her good friend
Can't be that good a friend, they would have spoken on the phone or texted each other so Liz knew would have known what was going on. She obviously also does not communicate with Steve.
That is a fair point Liz only contacts when she is staying longer she doesn't call to keep in touch. Maybe Poppy will never be mentioned again......
HERE’S sexy señorita Liz McDonald arriving back on the Corrie cobbles in style — after months on the Costa del Sol.
The glamorous landlady (Bev Callard) infuriated son Steve (Simon Gregson) earlier this year by swapping pulling pints in the Rovers Return for swilling sangria in the Spanish sunshine with his brother Andy.
But she makes a glamorous return to Weatherfield next month — as she shimmies back in a scarlet flamenco dress.
And it’s not long before she’s being driven wild by her toy-boy cabbie boyfriend Lloyd Mullaney (Craig Charles), who is delighted to have her back.
But they might not be happy for long.
Liz’s ex-husband Jim (Charles Lawson) is due to make a show-stopping return this Christmas for son Steve’s wedding to Becky Granger. Let’s hope Liz doesn’t say adiós.

Do you think her romance with Lloyd could be over with Jim coming back?
It will be over, I am sure :)
I kind of hope so I thought Lloyd and Poppy had a little bit of a spark no chance of anything happening now she has gone
I think Lloyd is better suited to Eileen than to Liz.
I think Lloyd and Poppy had a spark or Lloyd and Claire
Lloyd and Clare, now there is a storyline/affair that would be better suited than Kevin and Molly. Lloyd will seem like an extra if he is not with Liz or anyone else.
He was an extra in my eyes before he took up with Liz
Unless he starts something with another main character......
Hes still the fella of Red Dwarf to me, I cannot take him seriously, let alone feel sorry for him, I dont understand why he is still in Corrie.
I never watched the show first thing I have seen him in
An upcoming Coronation Street storyline will reportedly see The Rovers Return trashed during a fight.
According to The Sun, trouble escalates at Jason Grimshaw's (Ryan Thomas) birthday party when tension rises between Chris Gray (Will Thorpe) and Frank Foster (Andrew Lancel).
The drama will see Street residents including Becky McDonald (Katherine Kelly), Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall), Tommy Duckworth (Chris Fountain) and Owen Armstrong (Ian Puleston-Davies) become involved in the brawl.
Viewers will apparently see Becky hit by a stripper who is booked to appear at the birthday party. Shocked landlord Steve (Simon Gregson) will be seen arriving back at the height of the drama, as he takes in the damage to the Weatherfield boozer.
"The Rovers has been the scene for lots of punch-ups in the past," an insider told the paper. "Usually there's always someone on hand to drag the fighters apart - until now."
The source added: "This will be the first time that a brawl anything like on this scale has broken out."
Already posted, no need for another thread :)

This must be the build up to Becky's departure all these fights and trouble will cause problems for her and Steve.
Coronation Street bosses are planning to keep fans guessing over the future of the Rovers Return after Steve McDonald decides to put it up for sale, a report has claimed.
Steve, played by Simon Gregson, announces plans to put the pub on the market as he needs to ease his debts in a forthcoming storyline, according to the Daily Star.
Current bar manager Stella Price (Michelle Collins) and her partner Karl Munro (John Michie) are told that they can have first refusal before Steve makes alternative arrangements.
However, when a number of potential buyers start touring the pub, regular punters become concerned that there could be big changes afoot.
Some Weatherfield residents express fears that their favourite local could be turned into a trendy wine bar, so they keep their fingers crossed that familiar faces Stella and Karl will come up with the cash before somebody else steps in.
A Coronation Street insider told the newspaper: "The Rovers has been a huge part of the street for years but times change. Steve needs to get his hands on some money, and quick. The pub could end up in anyone's hands."
Coronation Street will reportedly run the storyline for a number of weeks, leaving viewers to wonder what will happen to The Rovers.
Lets pray that Stelllllllaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrggggggggg cannot raise the money and that she, her hubby and plastic daughter disappear from whence they came.
Why not release Big Jim from the Big House and put him back behind the bar
Bring Alec and Bet Gilroy back to buy it
I thought Stellurghhhh inherits some cash but Karl blows it gambling, maybe he has a win ? I can't see a new publican needing to employ her and waste accomodation .So what's the betting it is the unthinkable, absolute nightmare Ms.Price and the other baboons. Frank Gallagher out of Shameless gets my vote
Coronation Street star Michelle Collins has announced that her character Stella Price is to become the new owner of the Rovers Return.
Stella is currently working as bar manager at the iconic pub, but it has now been confirmed that she and partner Karl Munro (John Michie) buy the business from Steve McDonald in the New Year.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Steve (Simon Gregson) will soon decide to put The Rovers up for sale in a bid to ease his debts.
Collins told Lorraine today: "I've had my name above the door for quite a while now as manager, but now she's actually going to own it. They struggle to get the money together to get a mortgage. And they're turned down by a few people because they're 'too old'. But then you'll see what happens. It's quite exciting, being the owner of The Rovers."
Collins added that viewers can expect to see different sides of Stella's personality in 2012.
"I'd love to create another iconic character," she explained. "I think Stella seems to be a bit like the Mother Teresa of Corrie - suddenly she's everybody's agony aunt.
"They're injecting a little bit of steeliness into her. I think people have got to like you first, but now she gets involved in some big storylines. The love triangle between Carla, Leanne and Peter, she's very much involved in that."
She continued: "And then obviously Karl with all his gambling. Which I think is good, because I think there's a lot of that going on out there. I think it's a big problem and it probably will be a big problem because we're in this big recession, so I think people will relate to that story and how Stella copes with that."
Stella and Karl have been appearing on Coronation Street since June.
What a disappointmrnt. We are going to have to put up with STEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGG for the forseeable future.
I wouldn't worry Alan she'll be gone by the Spring. yo-yo knickers Carla wll get her claws into Karl and wreck another marriage and Stella will leave the cobbles.
She could leave the pub to Leanne when she leavesQuote:

Other key characters will risk their lives trying to save those trapped inside as the iconic Street boozer is left “utterly devastated”.
Jilted Sunita will die after flames rip through The Rovers — leaving Corrie characters convinced SHE started the fire in a botched revenge attack.
The ex-barmaid, played by Shobna Gulati, becomes the prime suspect because of her torrid affair with Karl Munro, partner of Rovers landlady Stella Price
A source revealed Sunita is furious after Karl, played by John Michie, goes back to Stella (Michelle Collins). The insider added: “Sunita begins to hate Stella and all she stands for.
“Next thing the pub bursts into flames — and she’s on the scene. Even becoming a victim can’t stop people pointing the finger.
“But obviously if they’re wrong then the real arsonist will still be at large.”
Other characters will be trapped as pals battle to save them. The spring storyline will “utterly devastate” The Rovers — the show’s boozer since its launch in 1960.
The insider said: “When the fire is finally put out, The Rovers will stand in ruins.”
Sunita first appeared in Corrie in 2001. Actress Shobna, 46, revealed in the autumn that she would be leaving in a bid to move into comedy writing.
Her farewell scenes are being masterminded by departing Street boss Phil Collinson and come as a whole new Corrie set is being built in Salford
