She lived in a flat on Rosamund Street. She went to live in Harrogate (her hometown) to nurse her father from 1966 to 1967, before returning and moving into the corner shop flat. Some point afterwards she moved into the Rovers Return. And of course (as you pointed out) she moved into No.3 after marrying Ernie.

Although Emily has been in the show since 1961 (55 years) she only lived at number 3 since 1972 when she married her beloved Ernest. Does anyone know where she lived before that?

I'm glad it's been denied.
I imagine that had Eileen wanted to leave, she would happpily have returned for a day to film a few final scenes. If I were writing her out I'd have her die peacefully at home, with Rita and Norris present.

It has been denied. Papers making up crap as usual and misleading people.

I suppose at 85 she would like a less busy life. I was very glad to get out of work at 58 so I really admire her for staying so long. She's had nearly a year off and I'm sure it would be hard to get back into it.

Why has she decided to leave?

A happy Corrie ending for Emily would be lovely.

I read that too, I'm hoping it's made up like most of their 'news'. I would hope she would return to film her final scenes like Betty in Emmerdale - they had that she met a fabulously rich pensioner and was emigrating with him but came back to say goodbye!
Goodnight, good luck and may your God go with you
