Deidre Barlow (Anne Kirkbride) and Ken Barlow (William Roache) are delighted when Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) is discharged from hospital after her attack. Tracy is thrilled to see daughter Amy Barlow (Elle Mulvany)...
Tracy is determined to get her own back on Claire for pushing her, and tries to snatch Becky McDonald's (Katherine Kelly) mobile when she realises she is talking to Claire

I would be angry too. What on earth is Tracey doing there?

Coronation Street star Kate Ford has named her character's ongoing war with Becky McDonald as a highlight of her return to the soap.
The actress's bitchy alter ego Tracy Barlow has made no secret of her dislike for Becky (Katherine Kelly) in recent weeks - and has even told the blonde that she plans to steal her husband Steve (Simon Gregson) before the year is over.
Ford has been back on screen since December and is thought to be on an initial six-month contract with the Weatherfield drama.
In an interview with Soaplife, the mum-of-one explained: "I felt nervous at first but now it feels like I've never been away - although it seems as if everyone here has had a baby, so we talk about our kids a lot now.
"I love working with Simon Gregson and Katherine Kelly. We both love what's going on between Tracy and Becky."
Asked whether it has been hard to slip back into the character, Ford replied: "No. I played her for six years so I know her really well. The writers know Tracy and they do all the hard work. I just have to imagine what it's like to be her. I think my face changes as soon as I step onto the cobbles as Tracy."
Tracy's latest storyline has seen her discover that her stepbrother Peter has been betrayed by his unfaithful partner Leanne, leaving her wondering whether to tell him or not.

Coronation Street star Kate Ford has reportedly signed a new contract to stay with the soap.
The actress, who plays Tracy Barlow, has agreed a six-month deal worth £80,000, committing her to the show until at least 2012, The People reports.
Ford had previously decided to leave at the end of her current contract in May because commuting to Manchester from her London home meant she missed her son, Otis. However, show bosses have now persuaded her to change her mind.
A source said: "Viewers have loved having Tracy back. We're delighted she's signed a new contract. She's here for the foreseeable future."
Another added: "She's going to be causing huge trouble for Steve and Becky and there will be run-ins with Liz. Viewers will be screaming at their TVs when they see what she does next. The bitch is well and truly back."

I was only putting up with Kate Plank because I was sure she was only staying for 6 months. What is it about her that the producers think is so fn special. She is a talentless actor

The source wasn't Kate Ford by any chance was it?
