Coronation Street viewers spot major blunder as Faye Windass leaves show after 13 years

Faye Windass has departed Coronation Street in what were emotional scenes this week, but fans have flocked to social media to point out one massive blunder.

In her final episode on the show, Faye, who is 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.

Although fans described the departure from the ITV show - which airs on Virgin Media in Ireland - as very emotional, many 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," one viewer mused.

A second added: "Corrie didn't Faye have a job?"

Another fan wrote: "Faye just leaving like that despite having a factory job."

A fourth puzzled viewer shared: "What's Faye going to do for work without her pity job at the factory?"

Previously, Ellie opened up about the emotional final scenes to The Mirror, explaining: "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 are 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 managed to stop the taxi and ran to see Craig one last time. While some viewers were delighted to see her move on with Jackson and being a mother to Miley, others were hopeful she might return one day to be with Craig.
