Is this going to be written into the script thus stopping Becky and Steve getting together or will we eventually see her hiding behind sofa's, big handbags etc then have her disappear for a while after she finally dumps him and goes away to get over it?

... my money's on something like your second option, frannyp.

And Michelle being a character I dislike, there's no need for her to hurry back on my account.

Would be great if she walked off into the sunset pushing a pram, never to be seen on the cobbles again.
