This seems odd, exploring Linda's 12 months since the attack would be quite interesting but they send her on holiday (and she's not been on screen that much recently)

Then not having Ian around for the trial just seems like madness, I really don't get it, he is one of the central characters in this, it doesn't seem he is in this or next week. I know Adam would would want a holiday but surely after the trial?

They both have stories coming up ie Kathys return and Elaine's tomboy so they won't be off screen for long.

Ian has been quite prominent past couple of years so it's understandable that he's had a little break.

I read something a little while ago and it said that when soap actors are off screen, it doesn't mean they are at home chilling out. It normally means they are off elsewhere filming a different block of episodes. In Kellie's case, it may of been for strictly but when she returns, it kickstarts off a new storyline with her mother and toy boy anyway.

This was filmed in July and usually actors go on holidays in the summer period. Adam Woodyatt and Kellie Bright have children so they probably took time out to go on holidays with their families or they needed a break from the show and enjoy the sun in the UK. It's my theory so it's not a fact but that's what I think.

It depends really

Scott Maslen was written out of EE when he did strictly. His character was away doing work and he even missed the birth of his son with Ronnie.

But when Jake Wood did strictly, he managed to do both and Max played a big part around xmas and new year and was never really off screen apart from a few episodes. I can't see Linda having a reduced screen time due to the storyline with her mother coming up.

I suspect the thing with Ian will be just a plot device to get him out of the way while Sharon discovers Kath is still alive?

Can't be much longer now, given she "heard" Kathy on the phone on Friday...

I thought they got rid of Ian for a bit because people on the square are starting to find out about Kathy

I disagree.

Sending Linda on holiday away from it all, with her mom and daughter seems quite fitting. It's been nice to see Linda a bit more happier in recent times, and it would be a shame to see her that upset again (Even though it would be understandable).

Ian running away before the trial also feels fitting. Obviously, they'll be much more to this story when Kathy returns and...

These kind of things happen all the time in soaps.
