A CORONATION Street favourite makes a shock return after moving abroad - and she's not alone.
Weatherfield Street has seen residents come and go over the last few months, with Simon Barlow the most recent departure.
But earlier this year, Summer Spellman left the Cobbles to complete study placement in the US.
However, in upcoming Coronation Street scenes, Summer (Harriet Bibby), returns home to see Billy Mayhew and Paul Foreman.
She reveals to the pair that she has a boyfriend called Felix, and he's waiting to meet them in the Rovers Return.
Before her arrival, Paul and Billy attend an appointment with the MND nurse, who tells them that as his neck muscles deteriorate he won't be able to use his stair lift.
