CORRIE bosses are *desperate to bring back soap siren Suranne Jones to *Weatherfield’s cobbles.



Suranne, 33, who played Karen MacDonald, left the ITV soap in 2004 but scriptwriters have earmarked her as their prime target for this year’s Christmas shows.




Corrie bosses know her on-screen antics with Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) andSteve MacDonald (Simon Gregson) are a huge hit with fans and are keen to bring her back.




A Corrie source said: “They’ve been keen to bring Karen back for a while now but Suranne’s been so busy there was no chance of it happening.




“She isn’t filming at the moment so producers are hoping to swoop and get a deal done.




“They’ve earmarked her for the shows to be aired this Christmas and they’re prepared to pay big bucks to get her back.

“It’s hard to believe she’s been away from the show for so long.




“Karen’s certainly got *unfinished business on the Street.”




The soap’s scriptwriters meet several times a month to discuss storylines and potential new characters.




Since leaving the Street Suranne’s career has gone from strength to strength, with roles in ITV’s Vincent, Strictly Confidential and Scott & Bailey.




She has just finished filming The Secret Of Crickley Hall for the BBC, which will air in autumn.




A source close to the star said: “Suranne has never ruled out going back to Coronation Street.




“She only left because she wanted to spread her wings a bit and try out other roles.




“But she enjoyed Corrie and Karen is one of the *characters she has most enjoyed playing.




“It’s certainly something she’ll consider. Facing Tracy Barlow again would be dynamite and a sure ratings hit.”

I would dearly love to see her returning to the cobbles. She could get rid of three crap characters with a believable storyline. She would make a wonderful landlady for the Rovers, getting rid of St Ella, she hates Tracy so in a fight we all know who would win and as for Michelle well the fact that she was with Steve would be emough to see the end of her.

Sorted.

Use the money that is wasted on those three characters and spend it to bring back Karen/Suranne
