For sure Perdy, just think her control obsession with Tyrone might lead her to try and make the final decision for their three futures ,which fails for Ty and Ruby whilst she goes off to that big Police Station in the sky.

Coronation Street star Alan Halsall has warned viewers that Tyrone has a tough time ahead of him.
Speaking to reporters backstage at the National Television Awards after picking up the 'Best Serial Drama Performance' trophy, Halsall explained that characters could begin to turn on Tyrone.
"Kirsty tried to hit Tyrone again, misses and falls down the stairs," he said, referring to last night's show (January 23).
"It becomes a huge twist in the storyline that Tyrone's actually portrayed as the perpetrator and not the victim, which is obviously a lot easier for people to believe because that's how we hear of domestic violence."
Halsall continued: "That takes a huge twist, and then of course we go into the court case... So yeah, it's still not a happy time for Tyrone."
Asked if Kirsty (Natalie Gumede) could get her comeuppance in the future, Halsall laughed: "Well, I mean, this is a soap opera, so who knows!
"I think what's been lovely about the story is it's not been sensationalised with deaths and murders and all that kind of thing, so maybe she might get her comeuppance - but I hope it's not in that kind of way, because I think it's been quite a sensitive story that's run for maybe the best part of a year now.
"So I wouldn't end that way, but you know, she is a soap villain at the moment."
Halsall also revealed that he has received letters from fans who have reached out to share their experiences of domestic violence, adding: "The charity we got involved in for research, their calls have gone up 300% since the storyline [began]. It's nice that Coronation Street can do something like that and raise the awareness."
However, Halsall joked that he wouldn't mind getting a more light-hearted storyline in the future.
"I've had a few hard years obviously with the Tyrone-Molly-Kevin storyline and of course Jack and Vera both dying in the show," he said. "And then this one. So yeah, maybe a bit of light relief is needed - maybe a bit of comedy next!"
an court case??? this will drag for months
not in soaplife, will all be done and dusted in a couple of weeks
Coronation Street's domestic abuse storyline has sparked an increase in men calling a national helpline.
Weatherfield character Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) is suffering from violence at the hands of his partner Kirsty Soames (Natalie Gumede) on the ITV soap.
Mark Brooks, chairman of the ManKind Initiative, credited the show with giving male victims the confidence to speak out after calls trebled to 30 a day since the plot aired.
"It's reduced the stigma and what it's also done is highlight the fact that it does happen to men," Brooks told the Daily Star Sunday.
"When men see it on something as high profile as a soap they realise that there is help out there and that they're not the first man this has happened to.
"The storyline in Coronation Street has been invaluable in educating society that men are victims of domestic abuse too. It has done a great service to all those who are suffering behind closed doors."
Men suffering from domestic violence can seek help by calling ManKind on 01823 334244.
Coronation Street's Kevin Webster will support old friend and business partner Tyrone Dobbs in his custody battle for daughter Ruby.
Speaking to itv.com, actor Alan Halsall revealed that Kevin will believe Tyrone's side of the story along with Tina McIntyre and Tommy Duckworth over Kirsty's domestic violence.
"Somewhere down the line we will find out that he has Kev on his side," Halsall said. "But apart from that not many people know what went on in the past because he kept it such a secret.
"He was embarrassed about what was happening so he didn't want people to know but of course now that is his downfall really. So he doesn't have many people on his side right now."
Fans have recently witnessed Kirsty turn the tables on Tyrone by telling the police that he had been abusing her after she fell down the stairs last week.
Meanwhile, new pictures confirmed that Tyrone will plan to flee Weatherfield in a desperate bid to be with his daughter.
Halsall commented on the latest twist: "Obviously kidnapping your own child is the one thing that would ensure you never saw them again but he is not thinking ahead, he is living for right now and he just wants Ruby in his arms right now, it is the only solution he can see."

Prison for Tyrone
This one won't please the 'Free Tyrone' campaign! Sadly but not surprisingly, it looks like the mechanic's upcoming plan to go on the run will backfire badly.
Tyrone is hoping for a fresh start when he flees Weatherfield with Fiz and baby Ruby at the end of next week, unable to see any other solution to his problems following Kirsty's false allegations against him.
While hiding out in Wales, Tyrone and Fiz decide that it's best to leave the UK altogether, so they make contact with Chesney and ask him to deliver some money and their passports. Despite Katy's warnings that he should stay out of it, Chesney reluctantly agrees to help.
However, police interest in the case escalates to the point where Kirsty is encouraged to make a public appeal for Ruby's return.
Magazine reports have confirmed that the police do manage to track down Tyrone, who then finds himself behind bars in prison as he faces the music. Can things get any worse for him?
Kirsty's mum returns
This fortnight's Soaplife magazine confirms that Dawn Hope has been back filming with Coronation Street, reprising her role as Kirsty's mother Alison.
Hope was spotted filming on-location with Michelle Keegan (Tina) and Jennie McAlpine (Fiz) as their characters paid a surprise visit to Mrs Soames.
Regular viewers will know that Alison is a victim of domestic violence herself due to her abusive husband Ed. Are Tina and Fiz hoping that Alison can make Kirsty see sense and drop her malicious accusations?
Coronation Street's Natalie Gumede has confirmed that she is leaving the soap.
The Kirsty Soames actress revealed on her Twitter account today (February 22) that she will film her final scenes next week.
Gumede wrote: "I can now confirm what you all suspected: #Corrie is on a Kirsty countdown!! The last 18 months have been incredible, thank you all so much!
"Your support has touched me greatly, and working with the #Corrie team has been an honour and a pleasure."
Singling out the co-star of her domestic violence storyline, she went on: "Thank you @alanhalsall for your generosity as a person and as an actor! And all of my castmates, crewmates and all who look after us so well.
"After my final #Corrie filming day next week, I will look back with love, and look forward to new adventures xxx"
Gumede's character Kirsty falsely accused ex-fiancé Tyrone Dobbs of domestic violence last month, with the latter now having to battle to prove his innocence in court during the coming weeks.
It was revealed recently that two different endings to the trial have been filmed.
Gumede has made her mark since joining Coronation Street in summer 2011, with her domestic abuse plot named 'Best Storyline' of 2012 by Digital Spy readers. The actress also took the 'Best Newcomer' title at the British Soap Awards 2012.
so will she die or go to prison
Think she's going to jail - picture of her in handcuffs http://primetime.unrealitytv.co.uk/c...ill-air-video/
But Kirsty being Kirsty there are 2 possible endings - oh no there's not................
Corrie star Natalie Gumede has revealed that she wants to show her fun side after bowing out as twisted Kirsty Soames.
The actress filmed her final scenes as Kirsty last month, but she will remain on screen for a few more weeks.
Speaking to PA, Gumede explained that she is keen for a change after filming so many tough scenes for her soap role.
Gumede said: "I think it would be great to do a comedy after such an intense role… it would be nice to do something light-hearted and show I'm not as nasty as Kirsty."
However, she added that she is also "a huge fan" of BBC One's Strictly Come Dancing and would be interested in taking part.
Asked whether she was making a pitch for the next series, Gumede replied: "A little bit - shameless plug!"
Kirsty has been at the centre of Coronation Street's most high-profile story of the last year, putting fan favourite Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) through a horrendous ordeal.
After physically attacking Tyrone a number of times when they were a couple, Kirsty later turned the tables on him by falsely accusing him of domestic violence. Tyrone stands trial later this month.
Coronation Street continues tonight (March 13) at 7.30pm on ITV.
Corrie star Natalie Gumede has confirmed that her character Kirsty Soames's true nature will be exposed regardless of how Tyrone's trial plays out.
Show bosses are keeping tight-lipped over whether Tyrone (Alan Halsall) is found guilty or not guilty when he faces Kirsty's false domestic violence allegations in court later this month.
However, Gumede told All About Soap that Kirsty will be experiencing a backlash either way as the street's residents begin to realise that Tyrone was the victim all along.
Gumede explained: "Everyone she used to work with will know what happened one way or another, and she's going to be the enemy on the street.
"She doesn't fully realise what she's capable of, and for her that means the game's up. I can't reveal too much about what happens next - only that it's a fitting end for Kirsty, for now at least! You'll have to watch!"
Julie Carp (Katy Cavanagh) will be one of the first to see Kirsty's nasty side after helping her out with childcare by offering to babysit.
When Julie has to leave baby Ruby in Sally's care unexpectedly one afternoon, Kirsty is furious that her friend has let her down.
Speaking to Soaplife, Gumede added: "Kirsty's incensed at Julie and at Sally. Julie comes back and Kirsty loses her temper and she throws a cup across the room. And that's when the mask starts to slip."
Gumede filmed her final Coronation Street scenes at the end of last month.
Corrie villain Kirsty Soames will lash out at loyal friend Julie Carp in an upcoming storyline twist.
Kirsty hits Julie (Katy Cavanagh) next week, leaving the factory worker stunned as she sees the schemer's true nature at last.
An unstable Kirsty resorts to violence as she struggles with the double pressure of being a single mum and maintaining her lies when Tyrone Dobbs's domestic violence trial begins.
Kirsty has falsely accused Tyrone of a long-running campaign of abuse, but when she loses control with Julie, word begins to spread that Tyrone was the victim all along.
Natalie Gumede, who plays Kirsty, told itv.com: "For me, these scenes are more important than the court case. This is the climax, almost more than seeing Tyrone in court.
"Kirsty loses her temper and she throws a cup across the room in front of Sally and Julie, and that's when her mask falls. Both of them pretend everything's okay, but there's this awful moment where Julie realises what Kirsty is really like. Kirsty realises it's over.
"Julie has seen her for what she is, and in a moment of temper, she hits Julie. She's flipped and is no longer just taking her anger out on someone very close to her. This is the last piece of the jigsaw, everything's come shattering down.
"Julie runs out and Ruby's screaming. In a manic state, Kirsty is trying to calm Ruby, but she knows enough people know now for her lies to come tumbling down. Once again, she loses her temper but this time with the baby. She's screaming and screaming at Ruby and it's just a horrid moment. That's her moment of realisation."
With Kirsty's lies finally exposed, viewers will have to wait and see whether it is enough to help Tyrone's cause.
Gumede added: "For Kirsty, the last six months have been a pressure cooker and she's been living a complete lie, as has Tyrone. She decided to reap her revenge on Tyrone because of his feelings for Fiz, and now she knows she's turning into her dad.
"Her one redeeming factor is that she knows she does not want Ruby to experience what she did as a child. She knows the game is up."
Coronation Street fans will see Tyrone's trial begin next Monday (March 25) on ITV.
Corrie star Alan Halsall has admitted that he will be sad to see his domestic violence storyline come to an end.
The actor's popular character Tyrone Dobbs faces a tough battle to clear his name next week as he faces a week-long trial over his ex-fiancée Kirsty Soames's false allegations.
Kirsty has accused Tyrone of subjecting her to a long-running campaign of abuse, but viewers know that he was in fact the victim of violence in the destructive relationship.
Halsall told TV Times of the story reaching its conclusion: "In one sense I'm gutted as it's been the biggest storyline I've been involved in. You know, these storylines can't go on forever. But I knew it was coming to a head around now."
Whatever happens to Tyrone in court, viewers will soon see Kirsty bow out from the show, as Natalie Gumede recently filmed her final scenes in the role.
Asked about her departure, Halsall replied: "[I'm] devastated. She's such a talented actress. I love her to pieces. To make such an immediate impact on a show like this is a tough thing to do. I'm excited for her and I think she will go on to some really exciting projects."
Teasing the trial week, he continued: "It's a terrifying week for Tyrone. He's very naive. He thought that if he stood in court and said it as it was, people would believe him, but he's starting to see it may not be enough."
Coronation Street's trial storyline kicks off next Monday (March 25) at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.
I can't wait to see Kirsty hit Julie :p
CORONATION Street star Natalie Gumede has revealed how the vicious lies of her character Kirsty Soames will start to unravel when she attacks friend Julie Carp.
Ex-cop Kirsty, played by Natalie for nearly two years, has already persuaded most of Weatherfield that former fiancé Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) has been hitting her. The truth is, she’s been battering HIM.
But after giving evidence against her ex in court, Kirsty cracks and lamps Julie, played by Katy Cavanagh.
Natalie says: “On the surface, Kirsty is feeling very confident about the trial. She’s a master manipulator and she has everybody on her side.
“On the other side, though, I think she’s feeling incredibly lonely and under a lot of pressure, which starts to show very quickly. There’s nobody that she can really turn to.”
With Tyrone on remand, Kirsty has been looking after their baby daughter Ruby.
She has been struggling to cope as Tyrone had become a house husband before she had him arrested.
Natalie says Kirsty begins to crack as Tyrone’s freedom hangs in the balance.
She says: “I don’t think Kirsty is naturally very maternal. When she was with Tyrone she was quite happy going to work and picking and choosing when she wanted to be a mum to Ruby.
“She knows she loves her daughter from the bottom of her heart but she doesn’t know how to deal with her or even how to be around her.
“I think a lot of it comes down to her own childhood. She’s actually quite detached from Ruby and approaches her upbringing with a very analytical mind.” And when Julie begins to question Kirsty’s bond with her baby, the former police officer snaps.
Natalie continues: “Ruby is picking up on the negative vibes in the house.
“She hasn’t had her daddy around who had been looking after her every day. She’s grouchy and crying all the time.
“Kirsty can’t quite get her head around it. She can’t soothe her or make the crying stop. With that and the court case looming, she begins to feel as though the walls are closing in on her.”
Kirsty is an impressive witness in court. She knows exactly what lies to tell and she is spurred on by her hatred of Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine), Tyrone’s new girlfriend.
But she can’t hide her true colours 24 hours a day and when she lashes out at Julie and Sally Webster, her carefully constructed cover is blown.
Natalie says: “For me, these scenes are more important than the court case.
“This is the climax, almost more than seeing Tyrone in court. Kirsty loses her temper and she throws a cup across the room in front of Sally and Julie, and that’s when her mask falls. Both of them pretend everything’s OK but there’s this awful moment where Julie realises what Kirsty is really like.
“Kirsty realises it’s over. Julie has seen her for what she is and in a moment of temper she hits Julie.
“This is the last piece of the jigsaw — everything has come crashing down.”
And when Julie runs out in horror, viewers will fear that baby Ruby is in danger.
Natalie reveals: “Julie runs out and Ruby’s screaming. Kirsty loses her temper with the baby. She’s screaming and screaming at Ruby and it’s just a horrid moment.”
Natalie has loved playing Kirsty — even though it has been emotional.
Describing her time on the show, she gushes: “Challenging, surprising, daunting, terrifying, exhilarating, devastating... a whole mish-mash of emotions.
“There’s always something about her that fills you with dread or surprise.
“Every step of the way there’s been something that has made me wonder how I was going to play it and make it real.”
And while she’s been written out for now, Natalie says she would go back in a heartbeat if the right storyline comes up in the future.
She says: “I think it was the right time to go but I’ve missed my work mates hugely.
“They have left the door open, there is always the possibility of me making life difficult for Weatherfield residents.
“Maybe I’ll come back when Fiz and Tyrone are really happy.
“I would be very proud to be asked back.”

However, Gumede has teased that the door has been left open for her to make a comeback one day.

She continued: "Maybe I'll come back when Fiz and Tyrone are really happy.

Can someone please delete the extra T in Tyrone's name in the title it is bugging me :o
How sad am I :(
was making the search for the thread a lot easier though
Coronation Street actress Natalie Gumede has revealed that her character Kirsty Soames has given fans "nightmares".
The actress recently filmed her final scenes, and viewers will soon see Kirsty leave the soap that she joined in 2011.
Kirsty has accused ex-fiancé Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) of subjecting her to months of abuse, but when she loses her cool with Julie, word soon spreads that Tyrone was actually the victim.
Gumede explained that fans have told her Kirsty has terrorised them in their dreams.
"I've officially become the stuff of nightmares," she told The Mirror.
"A lot of people have told me they've had dreams where Kirsty was threatening them in some terrible way.
"I suppose I should be flattered as an actor, but I can't say I've taken it as much of a compliment!"
Gumede also said that she agrees with viewers who want to see Kirsty get punished for her treatment of Tyrone over the past year.
"The audience wants justice for Tyrone, and I fully agree," she said. "Soap justice demands that the baddie gets their comeuppance eventually.
"Ty has been the victim for too long and Kirsty is way past the point of redemption."
The actress added that she is going to miss working with her on-screen partner Halsall on the soap.
"My close friendship with him is the biggest thing that I'm leaving behind. Alan has been a rock for me, so I will miss him hugely.
"It was great to hear that he and his wife Lucy-Jo Hudson are expecting their first child. They will make a lovely family."
Gumede recently said that she would be open to a future return to the soap.
Coronation Street fans will see Tyrone's trial begin next Monday (March 25) on ITV.
Tyrone’s world is turned upside down when he finds out the violent mum of his child is free. And to make matters worse, the Weatherfield mechanic starts getting sinister text messages from her.
Tyrone, played by Alan Halsall, 31, is so scared he decides to turn his house into Fort Knox.
Fans will see him beg local builder Owen Armstrong (Ian Puleston-Davies, 55) to boost security.
He tells him: “I need some work doing urgently – new locks, bolts on the front and back door and a good burglar alarm.
“I’ve had a call – Kirsty’s been released.
“No conditions, no warnings, she can just turn up at any time, which is why I need this doing urgently.”
Tyrone’s fears are realised when he’s bombarded with text messages signed off with the letter K. He is convinced they are coming from Kirsty (Natalie Gumede, 29).
He tells Fiz: “She’s texting again. She said: ‘Thinking of you.’”
Fiz instantly hits back: “Right, well we need to phone the police. What happens if these texts turn into ‘I want my daughter, I’m coming to get you’?”
But Tyrone shows he is still scared of Kirsty when he replies: “We can’t, what if she finds out? She’ll be furious. She was a cop, she’s probably still got contacts.”
Fans will see Fiz (Jennie McAlpine, 30) get so angry she calls the mobile number and screams: “Listen here you twisted cow, I don’t know what mind games you think you’re playing but this has got to stop.”
But a show insider teased: “It’s true Kirsty has been released.
“But is she the one sending the texts, or is it someone else who’s a little closer to home?

.
Natalie Gumede has confirmed that she will not be returning to Coronation Street, despite plans for her character Kirsty Soames to be released from prison.
A Daily Star report today (March 5) revealed that a future storyline will see Tyrone left fearful when he hears that Kirsty is now a free woman again.
To make matters worse, Tyrone starts receiving a number of mystery text messages signed off as "K".
However, Gumede played down rumours of an on-screen return by tweeting: "Lots of people asking today if I'm returning to Corrie - no plans to lurk in any Weatherfield shadows or alleyways at the mo :)."
Show sources have suggested that Kirsty may not be the culprit behind Tyrone's text messages as the real culprit is "someone closer to home".
