An article on the STV website reports that Kate Ford will leave Coronation Street for good when her six month contract is up. I suspected that this might have been the case when Phil Collinson said in an interview "She's back for a good while" which seemed to hint that she was only returning for a certain amount of time.
I guess that things won't go too well at the retrial then? Corrie murderers always face punishment for their crimes and I guess Tracy is no different.

We have to wait SIX whole months??!
Gawd. Can't be soon enough for me!
Surely Phil Collinson would have gauged the reaction her return and seeing as every web board is slagging off the character and the acting, he would be an idiot to extend her contract. I personally think she should have been recast to have made her plausible but by just offering Kate Ford her old job back when she hasnt acted since was a bit mad if you ask Frosty!
Kim Crowther was the producer who was in charge when Kate Ford was signed back up. I think Tracy should be freed BUT she decides to leave the street, then in a few years time, give her a new head
According to that site, she's finding it too difficult to be away from her baby. I wonder if ratings are taking a dip? I agree, the retrial is the "out" and that is likely how she'll exit again. Either that or she'll be killed.
She did mention in a recent interview, that she was returning for six months to see how she felt about being away from her kid for so long.
The ratings are steady, though the viewers from the tram crash have filtered away slowly xD
Can't come soon enough for me either. Appalling character and acting. Seems Kate Ford hasn't used any of the intervening three years to sharpen up her "skills." Still gurning and yelling her lines at every opportunity. Please don't put a new head on it either - if ever a character can be said to have "nowhere to go" (which get-out clause has been used to get rid of some really good characters in the past) then this is the one.
As I have asked before please can we now have Nick murder her, get arrested immediately and sent down for life with no chance of parole?(I'm sure Gail will cope!)It will rid the street of 2 appalling characters and actors!!!
Going to stop watching it again after hse leaves.
nick and tracy will fall in love get married and send happy christmas postcards to their families from outer mongolia LOL
Agree with Jane & anonymous - awful characters!! I think I actually prefer Tracy to Nick and that's saying something!
If they did marry & move to outer mongolia ( or anywhere for that matter)it leaves the way open for their characters to return. Personally I'd like something a bit more permanent than that!
I agree with Jane - good riddance to her (and nick if poss)
Great news that she's going, once her stint is over we can try to move on and pretend this awful storyline never happened :)
The thing is, contriving a deeply improbable plot based on the sudden unexpected return of a deeply unpopular character - for the [u]sole[/u] purpose of having the character gratuitously provoke about 7 other characters, in turn simply to engineer a more-ridiculous-than-who-shot-JR whodunnit scenario just [i]might[/i] have worked if you'd got a half-decent actor in the central role and some well-written dialogue (though, it is in my view, still deeply unlikely that it would have done).
The fact that you've actually got Kate Ford in the central role bollocksing up the delivery of some truly appalling dialogue means that it was doomed to ignominious failure from the word go.
I've already remarked on what a terrible shame it is that The Street has embarked on such claptrap straight after rightly earning praise for the wonderful drama of the tram catastrophe. No harm in reiterating it.
I can't abide the nasty cow. Let her be crushed by a lorry...too bad it hadn't happened back in the 70s.
That's such a good point, Digger, about good characters ditched for 'having nowhere to go", and yet they keep bringing Tracy back. Let's hope this is really the end of her. I wish her the best as an actress. There's got to be some roles more fitting for her than Tracy.
In Canada, Tracy has just got out of prison. I've been watching Corrie for more than 35 years but don't think I can stand the return of such a mean, smirky, manipulative character. I won't watch again until I hear she's gone for good. And yes, having her back really is that bad. P.S. Please dump Kylie too--for exactly the same reason.
