Leanne Battersby (Jane Danson) heads back home in upcoming Coronation Street episodes, and she isn’t happy.
Over the past few weeks, Leanne has been away on a retreat with Rowan (Emryhs Cooper). We know this man leads a cult called The Institute, but Leanne has been led to believe it’s actually a self-help group and refuses to listen to anyone who attempts to tell her otherwise.
In this new video, we see the moment Leanne returns to the flat. She seems in a great mood and is pleasantly surprised to see Ken Barlow (William Roache) visiting Simon Barlow (Alex Bain) too.
Attention then turns to a frustrated Nick Tilsley (Ben Price), who tells Leanne she was meant to be home last night. She says her workshop overran and didn’t see an issue with staying longer.

Ken then tells Leanne he’s at the flat to say goodbye to Simon.
This leaves her confused, and then completely shocked when Simon reveals he’s leaving Weatherfield to join Peter Barlow (Chris Gascoyne) on his yacht.
In the scenes that follow after, Leanne will unleash her anger at Nick because no-one told her about Simon’s decision.
Nick will reveal to his partner that he did leave a message with Rowan about Simon, but the corrupt businessman probably failed to pass it on.

Leanne will have no choice but to put her emotions aside later, as she heads to the Bistro to say goodbye to Simon – a character who has been in Weatherfield for the last 16 years.
Describing the long-running continuing drama as ‘the backbone of [his] life’, Alex Bain said on his departure: ‘I felt very positive about it, but I am 22 now and maybe it is time to see what the future holds.
He continued: ‘That doesn’t take away the excitement and anticipation. With Chris going it felt like the obvious thing for Simon to follow his dad, Simon has been through so much and he was lost without his dad around.
‘Simon heading off on his adventures means I can have new ones of my own.’
