Ken was last on screen in May 2013, so has over a year's worth of carry-on on the cobbles to catch up with. With the help of the Corrie weekly updates, let's see what Ken has missed.
Hayley died
Comings and goings: Stella left, Tommy left, Marcus left, Paul the fireman left, Ryan left, Mandy left, Sylvia left, Brian left, Dennis left with Gloria, came back and left again, Kevin returned and left again, Todd returned, Andrea arrived, Kal and his family arrived, Jason's dad Tony returned (played by a different actor), Pat Phelan came and went, Maddie arrived, Michael Rodwell arrived
Peter married Carla, then he had an affair with Tina as Carla got pregnant but then lost the baby
Tracy and Rob opened Barlow's Buys and got engaged
Liz is back at the Rovers
Maria has a breakdown and sends Tyrone troubled texts
Victoria Court gym opens for business
Nick's personality has changed
Lloyd has a heart attack
Steve did a college course in history
Tina's given birth to the baby for Gary and Izzy, and Tina's been murdered, of course. Gary and Izzy split up.
Sally and Tim are now a couple. When Ken left, Sally was still trying internet dating.
And Deidre summed up her life in one drunken sentence to Eileen: "“Disappointment. With an undercurrent of fear." She also joined the Weatherfield Women’s Action Group in April this year but we've not heard any more of it since.
Is there anything else you can remembe that Ken won't know about (unless Deirdre's been updating him on the phone, of course!).

Whata fun Synopsis! Might add more about Leanne only because she is Simon's guardian. She's left Nick and is now with Kal. Cheers, Martes.
the actual accident that caused Nick's personality change. The closure and burning of the library that Ken probably frequented as well.
EXCELLENT Blog Flaming Nora. Oh my...he has certainly missed alot!! I hope the picture of him I saw earlier this week was just a not so great photo, because he looks like he has lost alot of weight, and looked rather frail. It's sad that he was put through such drama. I'm looking forward to his return.
Kylie's given birth to Lily, the truth about Nick/Kylie came out, as well as David's vendetta. David and Kylie split up, and have since reunited.
The truth about Karl causing the Rovers to burn down, and that he murdered Sunita.
The whole street got up and moved, brick by brick! Hence Ken may have had difficulty in finding everyone when he got back to the UK.
I do hope they give him a throwaway line about only remembering one upstairs Rovers window.
It will be nice to have Ken back but I hope this doesn't mean the end of sparky, sassy Deirdre.
