DAvid and Kylie!!!

[Dazzle]

This is one actress -who tho important to Corrie-
Has 2 real pregnancies which spread over nearly 3
years. Its only imo but its part of SWs job to
deal with changes in the actors lifes??!

Of course it is, but as stories are planned up to a year in advance any unexpected absences are bound to cause a bit of a headache for the writers.

At least with a pregnancy they get a few months warning. Sudden absences due to sickness etc must be a nightmare.

I am sure the SW have started to create the Callum dead reveal story ... I think Kylie will go to prison , that way she will be written out with an option to return at some stage, if Paula wants to, the kids will stay with David and Gail, David and Kylie divorce, then David will marry Jenny Bradley and they will live happily ever after

Any thoughts that Callum somehow survived and escaped seem to have gone ,would have been a good twist in the storyline imo. Either way, how come David appears to be agreeing to Gail's underfloor heating wishes. His true to form character would have bought her a 18 tog duvet and electric blanket or a fan heater.

Certainly hope so MM, would still allow Kylie /Paula to suddenly and mysteriously leave on her own, with the option to return.

Sean has said he is moving to Los Angeles to try his luck there which would mean he is not available to come back ... unless they cast a new actor of course

Paula Lane to leave Coronation Street
17:39 - 9 FEB 2016
Coronation Street actress Paula Lane is to leave the show after six years playing troubled Kylie Platt.
Paula will be at the centre of a huge top secret storyline which will be on screen this summer. She will finish filming as she goes on maternity leave in June.

She notified ITV of her intention to leave the show a few weeks ago, the producers and writing team discussed her exit at the story conference and came up with an exciting storyline for her departure which will coincide with the timing of her maternity leave.

Writers and storyliners are now working on the details of her dramatic exit which will focus on the climax of the storyline which saw Callum Logan murdered and buried under Gail’s granny flat in the live episode last September.
Kylie and David buried Callum in the manhole during Corrie's live episode
Producer Stuart Blackburn said:

“Paula is one of the most talented and dedicated actors I know and in Kylie she has created an unforgettable Corrie character.

"I for one will miss both the character and the actor and on behalf of all at Coronation Street wish Paula all the love and luck in the world and I'm certain that Paula's future will be full of continued success.”

Paula Lane said:

“This has not been an easy decision for me to make. I have enjoyed every moment of my time on Coronation Street and learnt so much in the process.

"I have an amazing on-screen family who have become friends for life so this decision was not taken lightly. But sometimes you just have to follow your heart and I am excited about what the future has to offer both personally and professionally.”

Whatever her exit, I hope David gets the kids, he loves Max and Lily and is a good dad
