Eva is coming back on the cobbles with a bang! Catherine Tyldesley hints at what's to come.

Eva arrives back in Weatherfield with plenty of drama in tow, having fled from France and a failed engagement.

And it looks like she's heading straight for more drama on the street. She has a run-in with Sarah in The Rovers, and then comes face-to-face with ex Jason. Is there still a spark there perhaps?

See what Catherine Tyldesley has to say about Eva's return...

Catherine Tyldesley has confirmed there will be a romance between Eva and Aidan.

The actress has just returned to Coronation Street after her maternity leave and has revealed that Eva is "spoiled for choice" when it comes to the men on the cobbles.

"As an actress, I'd like to see Eva get back together with Jason and, as a viewer, I'd like that, too, because they just work. They're very sweet together and there are still a lot of feelings there; she still loves Jason and I think that's reciprocated," Tyldesley told the Daily Star Sunday.

"They're kindred spirits, so I'd say, "Watch this space." But I'm spoilt for choice! After Eva finds out that Jason slept with Alya, she thinks, "Well, I love Jason more than he loves me and this Aidan guy is pretty fit".

"So when Aidan interviews her for a job as a machinist at the factory, she starts flirting with him – and not just because she wants her old job back."

Her temporary exit for Eva aired in February, as she decided to leave the cobbles for a while after Jason mistakenly accused her of an affair with his father Tony Stewart.

Jason has since discovered that his half-brother Todd was responsible for tricking him into his suspicions.

Tyldesley and her fiancé Tom Pitfield became parents for the first time when she gave birth to a baby boy Alfie in March.

Eva should go back working in the pub if Liz and Steve would hire her back

I am sure it won´t be long before she is back behind the bar ... the amount of time Sarah needs to have off these days, they will need her

I think Liz already did in the live episode.

Sarah is a perfect replacement for Tina in terms of the amount of breaks they have.

She helped with the food preparation, not sure it was not just for that event though but you might be right, she might have got a job on a permanent basis

I thought she would start working in the gym to hel out Zeedan keep up with the paperwork. In this day and age how come a lot of them end up in the factory. Not impressed with Aidan stealing 100k from his dad. Stay away Eva.

In this day and age how come a lot of them end up in the factory.

In this day and age how come everyone in Corrie works in or around Coronation Street and everyone in Eastenders works in or around Albert Square? And their job searches when they are out of work only extend to jobs within 2 minutes walking distance of their home?

Yet they always eat in the pub, Bistro or cafe instead of going home, must be earning fantastic wages to afford that all the time

Coronation Street Christmas 2015 – Catherine Tyldesley on Eva’s new romance
Sparks will fly on the cobbles this festive season and Coronation Street’s Eva Price gets up close and personal with Aidan Connor.
The pair will see in the new year with a kiss followed by a passionate sex session, but not all is as it seems and Eva could have her heart broken early in 2016.
Here Catherine Tyldesley, who plays Eva, reveals what’s in store for her character…
Is Eva ready for another relationship? Eva does like to have someone in her life but I don’t think she has been actively looking for a relationship,she has enjoyed flirting with Aidan and things just progress really.
Does she ever think about getting back with Jason? She will always have feelings for Jason – he is a genuinely nice guy and she knows that but he hurt her and after what she has been through with guys in the past she won’t settle for someone who messed her around.
What kind of qualities is she looking for in a man? She wants someone who treats her well, trusts her, makes her laugh and can look after her.
What does she like about Aidan? Well he is very easy on the eye! He is a successful businessman and he gets her, he likes women and he knows how to make them feel special.
Is he her usual type? She doesn’t have a type as such, her previous men include Jason and Nick, but she is not a pushover either, she needs to feel a connection with someone before letting it go any further.
Does she worry that things could get complicated with him being her boss, or is that part of the fun? I think he might be more concerned about that than her, or rather his family might see it as an issue but she quite likes the idea of dating the boss.
Was she jealous when he went on a date with Sarah? Not really, there was nothing between them at that stage just a bit of banter but it maybe did make her realise she might be more interested in him than she thought
Is his playing hard to get making her more interested? Well it always make things a bit more interesting and Eva likes a challenge.
She finds him alone on the anniversary of his mum’s death – does him confiding in her bring them closer? There is a connection between them which grows because she helps him through the whole situation regarding finding out about Carla being his half sister. Eva tells him that she went through the same thing when she found out Leanne was her sister and at first she was really angry and couldn’t deal with it but now they are very close and it is one of the best things that has happened to her.
What’s going on between them prior to New Year’s Eve? Just lots of flirting really, it is clear they fancy each other and then at the New Year’s Eve party they end up snogging the face off each other for the whole night. The scene took an hour and half to film and we are in the back of shot for the whole time so we basically had to snog for an hour and a half. Poor Shayne, I was wearing bright red lipstick which ended up all over him!
Have Eva’s friends said anything to her about the chemistry between them? I don’t think anyone is surprised. Leanne is not surprised when she finds out he has stayed the night at the flat. I think people would like to see Eva happy, we have had a great response from fans on social media who seem to like the idea of Eva and Aidan as a couple.
How does Eva find out about Kate and Aidan’s bet? Kate comes into the pub and tells Aidan he owes her a drink as she had bet him he would sleep with Eva – Eva is furious and throws the drink over his head!! It isn’t the best start to the relationship!
Do you think Aidan would be good for her?We have filmed into the New Year and they seem to be developing them as a couple. He does seem to bring the best out in her, he thinks she is bonkers but he also sees a more serious, intelligent side to her. We have got a more serious storyline coming up so you will see a different side to Eva.
How are you finding being back at Corrie? I absolutely love it. I did miss it whilst I was away but obviously I love being a mum too. I am so lucky to be able to do a job I love and make it work around being a mum too. I still pinch myself sometimes when I am in a Rovers scene!
How is working with Shayne? Shayne is such fun to work with, we really get on well and he makes me laugh. We are also singing together, doing a duet on the Abba Christmas Party on ITV on Christmas Eve, we are currently rehearsing all the time driving everyone mad!
What do you hope 2016 will hold for Eva?More drama, some happiness, lots of great storylines. I do know about one she is involved in and it is something quite different, I am really looking forward to starting work on it.
