Fans recently saw Shona’s caseworker talk to Roy about what to expect now that he has offered Shona a place to stay and have seen Shona disorientated after returning to Weatherfield. Luckily Roy was there to help her.

Shona is lucky to also have her loved ones eager to help her recover. But Maddy said, “It should be noted that in real life it is highly unlikely that after a severe brain injury someone would recover all of their lost function, and in most cases, you would expect the memory problems to be life-long. “

“The degree a person adjusts to often depends on their ability to accept that life may be different now and new strategies may be needed to cope with the ongoing effects of the brain injury, including memory problems.”

According to explosive show spoilers, Shona’s memory will indeed prove problematic now that she is back on the cobbles. Roy will be the unwitting recipient of one of Shona’s actions and it could prove fatal!
