with what i'th been reading tn the inside soap when she comes back she couses trouble for steve and becky when they decide to adopt tracy stars scheming
Yep she's bound to cause all kinds of trouble for Becky and Steve - just when they get things back on track too!
SHE may play Corrie's biggest bitch - but actress Kate Ford says she was full of nerves about returning as Tracy Barlow.
Kate, who begged soap bosses not to kill off her character, returns in the spring when Tracy is let out of jail to attend her gran's funeral.
She was jailed for 15 years in 2007 for murdering boyfriend Charlie Stubbs - but she will be back on the Street when beloved gran Blanche Hunt is laid to rest.
Actress Kate revealed her character will also re-appear for a longer stint in the soap later in the year.
Despite spending five years on the cobbles, Kate, 32, said she was worried about her return.
She has already filmed a string of new scenes and admitted in an interview with Hello! magazine: "I was really nervous at first.
"I had this noise in my throat like a croak because my mouth was really dry. The sound guy was like, 'I can hear that'. It was really loud."
Kate left Weatherfield in April 2007, but is still recognised as Tracy. The star added: "When I left, I said: 'Please don't kill me off!'
"I hoped I would return even though it was my decision to leave.
"People do remember the storyline even now. I still get binmen shouting 'Hello Tracy!' when they see me. I wanted people to see Tracy as messed-up, not evil."
Kate, who has a 19-month-old son called Otis, said: "I left Coronation Street to do lots of different things, then within a few months I found out I was pregnant so my life went in another direction."
Her return follows the death of actress Maggie Jones who played her on-screen gran.
Kate said: "I knew her really well. She was a brilliant person, really feisty with a naughty sense of humour."

Coronation Street's unluckiest lady Gail McIntyre (Helen Worth) attends court in the coming weeks on a murder charge - for killing her husband Joe. And as you can see from my pictures below, Eileen's certainly not prepared to miss the opportunity to see Gail in the dock!
It's no secret that Joe dies - as was seen in the NTA Corrie promo reel - but the aftermath is interesting to say the least. Gail actually ends up being remanded in custody pending trial, so expect plenty of prison scenes.
The cool twist, though, is that it paves the way for Kate Ford's return to screens as Tracy Barlow. Gail and Tracy in prison together?! What a combination...
oh i'm looking forword to it
me too it sounds really good
Happy New Year SoapBoards!
Tracy Barlow's return to Coronation Street will cause havoc for Peter and Leanne's romance, reports claim.
It has been announced that Kate Ford will reprise her role as the murderous daughter of Deidre, coming out of prison in time for the Manchester soap's 50th anniversary.
Chris Gascoyne, who plays Peter, told the TV Times: "Whenever Kate is around, things go wrong - Tracy comes in with a huge wooden spoon and stirs everything up.
"You know, Peter's just troubled, he's got demons but she's actually murdered someone."
Tracy began a 15-year prison sentence after killing abusive husband Charlie Stubbs (played by Bill Ward).
I wonder how Tracey will cause havoc for them?
