Coronation Street fans are in for some heartbreaking scenes next week, as one fan favourite will be saying her final goodbyes to the cobbles.
Julie Carp (Katy Cavanagh) returned to the soap earlier this year ahead of Eileen’s (Sue Cleaver) exit from the cobbles. However it was later revealed that she was terminally ill with cancer, and only had months to live.
Sadly, Julie will be saying her final goodbyes next week, and in devastating scenes she will be seen recording devastating videos of herself on her phone for her loved ones to see when she is gone.

In heartbreaking scenes, Julie and Eileen take in the breath-taking views at the lake – as Julie admits there’s no place she’d rather be. Prior to this, Eileen is left furious with George as he plans a romantic evening for the two forgetting he was supposed to be taking her and Julie for a day out at the lake.
Eileen takes a cab to the lake, and meanwhile at No.11, George stumbles across a video where Julie advises Eileen to call time on her relationship with him.

As an upset Eileen mulls over Julie’s death, George worries about Julie’s final message to Eileen and the future of their relationship which only annoys Eileen further.
Fans have been left furious with the reveal, as one took to X, previously known as Twitter to write: “Corrie is going to far with all these depressing storylines. Relationships breaking up. Need some fun and happy storylines to balance them out.”
Another commented: “AND NO ONE ASKED FOR YOU TO KILL JULIE OFF EITHER!!!”
Speaking on her return to the soap earlier this year, Katy said: “It was really lovely to get the call. It is something I haven’t thought about for many years. And I’m very fond of Julie, so it was a good feeling.
“It also felt good to be asked to be part of Eileen’s departure story it is perfect to come and have some closure on Julie and Eileen, to kind of revisit her. And, you know, there was such a lovely vibe between Julie and Eileen,” she continued.
“Sue and I go back to my very first job on The Cops so it is a full circle moment. It also attracted me as it was for a short set period of time and I could fit it in with the other things going on in my life.”
Julie first left Weatherfield in 2015 after her relationship with Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) broke down.
