Coronation Street fans believe Liz McDonald will soon return
Sue Cleaver, who portrays Eileen, announced her departure from the soap after a 25-year stint to explore new opportunities.
Last week, Eileen, who first appeared in 2000, bid farewell to the cobbles.
Eileen was a fixture at the taxi office from the very beginning, working as a switch operator and often seen assisting customers.

But with her departure now aired, fans believe it's only a matter of time before someone steps into Eileen's role at work - and they're confident they know who it will be.
"Now Eileen has left the cab office I wonder who will take her place," one person speculated on a Corrie Facebook fan page.
Viewers quickly suggested that soap legend Liz McDonald (Beverley Callard) could make a comeback and help run the business alongside her son Steve.
Fans are clamouring for the return of soap legend Liz McDonald to Coronation Street, with one stating: "Liz McDonald! Get her back to run it with Steve."
Another supporter concurred, saying: "That would be so good."
A different individual suggested: "Maybe the business starts to fail and she comes back to help Steve?" Reinforcing this idea, a fellow fan expressed: "I'd love that!".
In February of this year, Beverley admitted to taking medication to cope with some mental health struggles.

She spoke about how we needed more access to talking therapies. Beverley made her first appearance on the cobbles in 1989, revealing she was hit with mental health struggles two decades later while she was still working on the show.
"I was first hit with it in 2010 and I was hospitalised for three months.. I was terrified of people hearing about it," she expressed, explaining how people wanted to know why she was missing.
"There was a feeling of guilt, of shame, of people thinking I was maybe weak. Clinical depression is not that, it's the curse of the strong. It affects people pleasers and people who don't stop, so it is important to talk," she said.

At 10am TODAY you can snap up £3 prom dresses for your kids – here's how and you won't even have to get into a queue
SOME parents spend hundreds and hundreds of pounds on the perfect prom dress for their daughter. But there's a new way that savvy mums and dads are preparing to nab a gorgeous gown perfect for the special school occasion - for just £3. 2 Nadine took to the Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK group on Facebook to share the tip, as she wrote: "ASOS Sample sale - 10am Friday. "May help someone out who is struggling with finances to get a prom dress." She also shared a screenshot of some of the dresses that are going to be included in the sample sale, included gorgeous gowns previously listed as bridesmaid dresses. "The Maya ones were my bridesmaid dresses and they're really lovely," one person commented. "I had this dress range when full price from the bride as my bridesmaid dress and it was so lovely!" another added. "So this is an absolute bargain." "I got the longer sleeve one a while back and it is a lovely dress," a third insisted. "I bought two of the sage green ones at full price," someone else wrote. "I also wore a purple one for a wedding." Others tagged their friends in the comments, with one writing: "Keep your eyes peeled, you might find a nice dress!" ASOS launches brand new secret sale where EVERYTHING is £5 - including Topshop, Pull&Bear and Stradivarius goodies perfect for summer "Didn't think about ASOS," another admitted. "They don't quite look like the right colour but I'll deffo have a look tomorrow!" "Not sure if you found any others but I'm gonna see if I can find a dress for my mum this time," a third commented. While someone else warned: "Heads up everything was sold out by 10am last month so be ready for about 9am. "They just decide to drop it whenever." However, another added: "It isn't that it sells out quick, it's they don't have much to start with. Other ways to save money at ASOS HERE are some of the best ways you can save and get the best prices at ASOS and other outlet stores. Save money with ASOS Flash Sales and promo codes Flash Sales are mini-sales that last anywhere between a couple of hours to a few days - such as the 'Sample Sale'. When one occurs, an ASOS promo code will often be advertised that can be used on a particular product or range. Flash Sales also happen around bank holidays and other 'special' days like Valentine's Day, Halloween and April Fools' Day. Get an ASOS birthday discount code When signing up to ASOS, or any retailer for that matter, make sure to put in all your personal details, including your birthday, for special rewards. If a retailer knows your birthday, they'll send you a code two weeks before for you to use on full-price items. Sign up to the ASOS newsletter Again, this doesn't just apply for ASOS, but signing up to newsletters keeps you in the loop with all the latest deals and discounts as soon as they're announced. By signing up, you're usually rewarded with a new customer promo code for money off your first purchase. Buy from the multipack section Multipack sections often go unnoticed but they're a lifesaver for saving money on wardrobe essentials. For example, a plain white ASOS DESIGN women's t-shirt costs £8* when bought by itself, but a pack of two t-shirts comes in at £15* and a pack of three comes in at £22*. Get cheaper delivery While it's understandable you wan't your new product as soon as possible, try and pay for the least expensive delivery option - even if it means waiting an extra day or two for it to arrive. ASOS offers free Standard Delivery (usually £4.50) on all purchases over £40, too. Find deals in the sales If you're looking for ASOS discounts, make sure you check the outlet. The ASOS Outlet is great for finding cheap out-of-season stock, just as you'd expect at a regular outlet shop. You can find items with huge discounts of up to 70%. "It's got worse and worse! "Wasn't worth the wait last time - same stuff as before." While someone else admitted they'd been less than impressed with their purchase from the sample sale, writing: "I bought the V neck one for a wedding and the sequins came off."

Shoppers run to B&M as gigantic garden slide is slashed to just a tenner
Scroll down to find out why B&M is so good for bargains SLIDE AWAY Shoppers run to B&M as gigantic garden slide is slashed to just a tenner SHOPPERS are racing to B&M to snap up a gigantic garden slide, scanning for just £10. With a heatwave set to hit parts of the UK this week, and the hot weather looking like it's here to stay for the foreseeable, kids will likely be desperate to get outside and play in the sun. 3 Shoppers are racing to B&M to snap up a slide that's guaranteed to keep the kids entertained Credit: Getty 3 The slide was initially reduced to £30 Credit: Facebook / B&M Scanner And Other Bargains! 3 The shopper was able to snap up the slide for £10 Credit: Facebook / B&M Scanner And Other Bargains! And whilst taking the whole family out to water parks and adventure playgrounds can be pricey, B&M fans have spotted the perfect bargain that's bound to keep the kids entertained all summer long. Sharing his find in the B&M Scanner And Other Bargains! Facebook group, a private group with 328,000 members, the bargain fan said: "Yesterday's find at B&M." Attached to the post was a picture of a Gigantic Garden Slide, originally priced at £50. A sale sticker had been placed on the box, to say it had been reduced to £30, however, when the shopper got to the till, it had been reduced to just £10. The bargain buy is six feet long when inflated and promises "slip'n, slide'n fun". It is suitable for children over three and includes a battery operated pump. B&M said: "Unleash the fun in the sun with this epic giant inflatable slide! "Watch as the kids' smiles reach new heights - It's the ultimate entertainment for endless summer fun." Shoppers raced to the comments section of the Facebook posts to tag their friends and share the bargain with them. One shopper pointed out that the slide is from last year's stock, so may not be available to buy in your local. I transformed my garden patio into summer haven for less than £100 with cheap B&M buys including gadget to keep bugs out And the slide isn't the only B&M bargain shoppers can get their hands on this summer. Bargain lovers across the UK can now snap up the Palm House Leaf Stem Metal Wall Art for just £1.50 in-store – down from £3 – giving their gardens a budget-friendly glow-up just in time for summer. Whether you're creating a lush retreat or just want to hide that tired old fence, this bit of wall art does the job for less than the price of a coffee. According to the manufacturer, it 'brings fun and charm to your garden' and is perfect for adding character without the need for heavy DIY work. Why B&M is so good for bargains SENIOR Digital Writer, Abby Wilson, who loves a shopping trip to B&M, has shared her thoughts on why the chain is the place to go for bargain buys... WE all love B&M (especially me). It's a one-stop-shop where you can nab all things from gardenware and homeware, to snacks and cleaning supplies. Not only do we love the variety B&M offers (because after all, who can be bothered to go to five different shops anymore?!), but the prices are brilliant too. If you're on a budget, B&M is definitely worth vising - as it's full of cheap bargain buys. Not only will you find affordable items, but B&M is full of dupes too - so if you're after beauty buys without the designer price tag, you'll need to take a trip. Similar to this, the chain are eager to get on trends - so if you see something in H&M Home but are on a budget and can't justify the price, give it a few weeks and you'll probably spot something similar on the shelves in your local B&M. The retailer has recently slashed prices on a range of outdoor products, including a luxury gazebo now reduced to £100, down from £125. And the bargain store recently sent shoppers into a frenzy, by selling children's toys for just £1. Keep in mind that retailers are allowed to price products differently across their stores. Make sure you're shopping around to get the best price. Price comparison websites like Trolley, Price Spy and Price Runner show you different prices for items across various shops.
