Since May of last year, Fiz Stape (Jennie McAlpine) has been working in Norfolk and has been absent from Weatherfield, so it has been a while since we have seen her on Coronation Street.
The plot was developed to fill in for Jennie McAlpine, who was absent from the program due to maternity leave. In August, Jennie and her spouse Chris Farr had their third child, a baby named Doris. The actress expressed her enthusiasm for the Corrie links to be connected to her children’s names.
“I adore that Doris goes with Albert and Hilda; it’s a family name,” the woman said. Additionally, they’re all extremely “Corrie.”
We’ve seen Fiz a few times since her departure since Tyrone (Alan Halsall) has spoken with her via video chat. He has been adjusting to the fact that his mother Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney) is a completely different lady in his life in the meantime.
Cassie, a former heroin addict, has been a turbulent addition to the Dobbs family as she attempts to adjust to life on the streets. Her grandparenting abilities have been a little inadequate since she never had a child of her own and hence has no experience as a mother.
And Tyrone will have a lot to worry about when he hears from his wife about this in later episodes. She asks Tyrone to accompany her to Italy for a work-related training, as if Norfolk wasn’t far enough away already.
Tyrone feels conflicted about seeing his wife, whom he hasn’t seen much, in a beautiful place.
Leaving Hope Stape (Isabella Flanagan) and Ruby Dobbs (Billie Naylor) with their grandmother Cassie would be necessary if they were to go to Italy.
Tyrone obviously has serious concerns about doing that, and it seems that he has good reason to be worried when Cassie chooses to show Ruby some love the very next day by giving her nail extensions and allowing her to eat crisps for breakfast.
Is Tyrone going to dare abandon his daughters for Cassie?
And when Cassie eventually makes her big comeback to Weatherfield, how will Fiz respond to her?
