Coronation Street - Jenny Bradley returns to Weatherfield, but she quickly realises that she has some very big bridges to build.

Rita will decide to meet with Jenny after her former foster daughter makes contact online and will ultimately decide to bring her back to the cobbles after witnessing the terrible conditions in which she is living.

Matthews said: "Jenny wants to apologise for what she put everyone through. She also doesn't want anyone to worry about her so she contacts Rita and tells Rita that she's fully recovered and has fallen on her feet, has found a fantastic place to live and that life couldn't be better. Unfortunately that's not the truth, but her intentions are just to say she's sorry and that she's fine. Jenny chooses to reach out to Rita because they have so much history. Rita sees where Jenny is living and decides that she can't live like this. She doesn't think it's safe, she is concerned for Jenny's safety being around there."

 

Once back on the Street, Jenny will come face-to-face with her former partner Kevin and his daughter Sophie, but it quickly becomes clear that they don't have forgiveness on their minds.

Now dating Anna Windass, Kevin has managed to move on from the turmoil that Jenny put him through and he will promptly warn his ex to keep her distance. However, he starts to soften when she pours her heart out to him over her mental health issues.

  

Matthews continues: "I think Jenny is optimistic that she's going to be able to apologise and that they are going to be understanding and forgiving. She's naively thinking that they will understand why she did what she did and that they'll forgive her and put it in the past. When Jenny first arrives back on the Street the first people she sees are Kevin and Sophie. What she'd imagined to be quite easy, she is suddenly overwhelmed and thinks maybe this was a step too soon for her. But she's there now so she tries to explain... but are they going to listen, are they going to understand?"

Despite his change of heart, Kevin still wants Jenny to stay away from Jack and his family, but is she upset that he has moved on with Anna?

Matthews said: "I think Jenny knows that this is her fate now and it's because of what she did. She doesn't blame herself for what she did, she knows it was grief and that it wasn't 'her'.  Jenny still has real affection for Kevin, and he does for her... but he's going to be too terrified to go there again with her. Kevin knows who Jenny is deep inside and why she did what she did and what she's been through, so he will turn out to be quite supportive. I think Jenny has to resign herself to the fact that he's moved on with someone else and probably knows that there isn't potential for them to get back together... but who knows? Watch this space!"

Jenny Bradley's return airs Wednesday, January 27th and Friday, January 29th
