Reading between the lines from Deirdre's phone call to him, Ken doesn't know anything about his son falling off the wagon or being a suspected murderer as Deirdre seemed to make out that Peter and Carla were still together.

Yes, AngiBear, I heard that too; it seems that Deidre is keeping everything from Ken, perhaps thinking he has enough to worry about with Adam. This will take a lot of explaining when he comes home, soon, I Hope.

It's a bit ludicrous that he is "looking after Adam" when Peter has gone completely off the rails and is back on the drink, his marriage has broken up and he may be facing a murder charge for killing his mistress(!)

Ken doesn't know that though, Deirdre told him everything is fine

I still find it hard to believe that Adam; a young man; has needed his aged grandfather to look after him for over a year following a blackout. If he is still so poorly then surely it will need to be mentioned that Adam has been critically ill, too ill to even fly to Manchester to be looked after by Ken at home. I know they needed a quick exit story for Ken but this "illness" has gone on way too long.

Adam is the son of (the late) Susan and Mike Baldwin (I think) - Susan being Ken's daughter and Peter's sister.

A very lame excuse thought up by the writers.

Adam should return with Ken.

Finding it a bit hard to believe that Ken would spend over a year with his grandson

My thoughts exactly. Think the phone call was the heralding of Ken 's imminent return to Corrie. Hope it lasts longer than Kevin's! Any one any idea when Kev us making his second return?

Got the feeling from the phone call that all this is being kept from Ken, though would have thought that he would be keeping up with the news from Weatherfield through his laptop or the likes( and no jokes about lap tops either!)

It looks like he's been filming from around early-mid June and I think it's done 2 months in advance so we are looking at 11 August or thereabouts.

Eccles will be pleased anyway! He can get walks along the canal side again, rather than stuck in the back yard with Deirdre smoking her fags!

Yes, I think Eccles misses that nice lady with a houseboat.

Deirdre talking to Ken on the phone was the highlight of that episode for me it just felt so right!

Would Bill Roache have been getting his annual salary whilst he's had this time off?

I should bloody well hope so. It's bad enough to be suspended from a job you love because of allegations that are subsequently proven to be unfounded, but to have to leave without any form of recompense would be grossly unfair. I doubt he sees al that time he spent fighting and fending off untrue allegations as "time off" in any sense.
