And now we know what her leaving story will be.
In an interview with What's on TV, Maureen Lipman, who joins the soap as Tyrone Dobb’s battleaxe nan Evelyn Plummer, she reveals that her character will be the reason that Fiz leaves Weatherfield
“Evelyn and Fiz are definitely going to clash,” said Maureen. “Fiz’s departure from the Street will involve Evelyn, her boorish behaviour will definitely be what drives her out.”

I wish Jenny MacAlpine all the very best, and hope she has a healthy, happy baby but I would not miss her character at all. If she returns the writers need to do something about her character, all she seems to do is drink in the Rovers with her nasty friend Beth and nag at the little girls and Tyronne.

DeleteShe's becoming very similar to what Janice Battersby used to be like before she left.
