Wiki on Ken Barlow: The character developed a reputation as a ladies' man; plots saw Ken dating numerous women, marrying four times to three women (Valerie Tatlock in 1962, Janet Reid in 1972 and Deirdre Langton in 1981 and again in 2005), fathering four children (Lawrence Cunningham, Susan Barlow, Peter Barlow and Daniel Osbourne), and adopting one daughter (Tracy Barlow).Quote:

Just remembered ... his real son played as his son and there was his grandson who attacked him ... Lawrence was the son ... was a few years ago now

A few years ago Norris found an old letter addressed
to Ken.- behind the skirting board at Emilys!!
I think that was where Ken lived with his parents
before his first marriage. After a lot of hoo-hah Norris
gave letter to Ken. After checking at the address on
letter ( from.old flame) it appeared that she had married
and had a son but was now dead. Dierdre noticed a
likeness between Ken and Lawrence and it was
established Ken was the father. She had married
husband whilst in very early stage of preganancy.
Lawrence was played by Linus( WRs real life son) The
character was homophobic but had a gay son.
The gay son was played by WRs other real son(Kens
grandson) who carried a scam at the charity Sophie
was involved with and she stole about £20 k from
Kevins bank a/c.
The above is recommended reading for insomniacs!!

She did find the one swapped at birth and decided it would be best to leave things as they are. Ryan isn't exactly lost...Quote:

I'm so confused by this Swm. Are you talking about Michelle and Steve? Has he got a long lost son then?Quote:

You'd think she'd stay in contact or at least mention him occasionally though. It's like she's forgotten he ever existed. What normal mother could do that?Quote:

Agree storyline did not work and they should not revisit The spoilers say Michelle goes searching for Steve's long lost son. I did not know he had one.
It confused us regulars that storyline. It was so daft
I.hadnt heard about Steve having long -long sonQuote:

Coronation Street's Grimshaw family are left in turmoil in tonight's episodes (November 7) after Todd is attacked while alone and vulnerable.
Todd (Bruno Langley) is targeted in an alleyway after walking off in an emotional state as his family have pulled out of attending an apology meal he has organised for them at the Bistro.
The incident sees Todd beaten up badly after refusing to hand over his wallet to a group of muggers. When his family hear the worrying news, they feel terrible as they know it wouldn't have happened if they had showed up to the Bistro as planned.
Later at the hospital, Eileen takes the news worse than anyone and seems reluctant to leave Todd's side as she feels so guilty. It's clear that a struggling Todd has the sympathy of his family again, but has the price been too high to pay?
