Will Adam return with Ken seeing as that is where Ken is supposed to be. With no other family can't the lad come back with him from Canada?

Ken Barlow is the only original cast member left. His family needs building up, never mind the Grimshaws.

    Interesting thought.

    As Ken has been away so long, it's to be assumed that Adam has been quite poorly. So it would make sense for Adam to come back with him.

    Could very well see this happening. With Peter possibly leaving later this year, the Barlows will need a younger, male character to replace him.

    Sam Robertson's acting has vastly improved too, so it might be an idea to offer him the chance to reprise the role. Let's be honest, they're not getting Iain De Caistecker back!

    As long as he isn't played by that mahogany sideboard with a Lou Ferigno wig then I don't mind.

    I always thought that his uncle Peter should have gone to look after him, too.;-)

    As soon as Ken can return, he will. Adam will be totally recovered and Ken will never visit him again.

    I have lost count of the Barlow men. I know Peter is Ken's son by his first wife, Susan. But who is Adam? is he the one who stole the money from the homeless hostel?

    Peter and Susan are Ken's twins by his first wife Valerie. Susan died but before she did, she gave birth to Adam

    That other son (Denise's) was called Daniel. And of course he has another son James from his first girlfriend and was played by Linus Roache.

    No, you're right. He has a son called Daniel through Denise and has another son called Lawrence but he has cut his ties with Ken

    No that was James he was Ken's grandson via his illegitimate son Lawrence whose existence was only revealed in 2010. Adam is his grandson via his daughter Susan who was married to Mike Baldwin - Adam being Mike's son.

    Adam has some very strange family relations, his dad and grandad were the same age, he had a half-brother older than his mum, an uncle younger than him and a nephew older than him. :confused::confused::confused:

    It was Mike Baldwin who had a son with the florist. Her name was Maggie Dunlop. Their son was called Mark. He later had an affair with Mike's wife Linda

    Linus Roache also played Peter Barlow many years ago.

    Susan had an abortion which led to the break up of her marriage to Mike Baldwin. Then they retconned it, and it turned out she had had the baby, Adam, after all.
