Coronation Street fans spot blunder as Faye Windass departs Cobbles after 13 years

Faye Windass has departed Weatherfield in emotional scenes on Coronation Street tonight – but fans all pointed out a huge blunder.

In emotional scenes tonight, Faye – played by Ellie Leach – decided to bid farewell to the Cobbles to move away with Jackson and their daughter Miley, leaving her fiancé Craig Tinker behind. He was devastated but told her it was the right thing to go if that's what she wanted, letting her leave with her to be with her daughter.

She was torn about whether she should stay or go, with some fans describing the departure as very emotional.

However, some couldn't get around a glaring error with Faye's departure from the street.

"Is it me or did Faye forget to resign from her job before departing or is she intending on commuting #corrie," one viewer mused. A second added: " #Corrie didn't Faye have a job?," as a third wrote: "Faye just leaving like that despite having a factory job."

"What's faye going to do for work without her pity job at the factory? #Corrie," a fourth puzzled viewer shared.

Ellie previously opened up about the emotional final scenes, as she told The Mirror and other press: "It was very, very emotional as obviously Faye is leaving the Street after 12 years, but it's me leaving the Street after 12 years as well.

"The saddest part is where she's in the taxi and we just see Craig on his own walking down the street and she's like stop the car, she gets out and says, 'I'll always love you, I always have and I always will.'"

She added: "I think it was just so emotional and you do see there's two people here who do love each other, but there are so many other factors, love isn't always enough and I think you can see that in that last scene."

In her final scenes, Faye stopped the taxi and ran out to see Craig one final time, with some viewers hopeful she might return one day to be with him, whilst others were happy to see her moving on with Jackson and being a mother to Miley.
