[QUOTE="Ome, post: 107871, member: 2"] I'd love to know if it was ever discussed by the cast. We're just about to go into Dec '87. Dr Lowther and his wife are moving to Derbyshire and Hilda is helping them pack. Dr Lowther went out to by them a Chinese takeaway (something Hilda said she didn't know if she would enjoy). While he is out two youths break in to burgle the place and Hilda along with Mrs Lowther catch them. The youths overpower both women and knock them out, as the story continues Corrie made out it was Hilda who had passed away, obviously we all know how Hilda leaves, but I was totally taken by how they made the viewer believe Hilda was gone. I think her exit is something every corrie fan will remember, so it really surprised me that I never recalled the story of the burglary and how Hilda may have been killed off. While in hospital, Eddie Yates turned up which was a welcome surprise.

I also think it's the year we lose Gloria. I'm eager for 1989 too because that's the time when they started building the houses on the other side. I can't remember how all that came about, what happened with Baldwins, and how the Kabin moved to opposite the corner shop. Plus we get the McDonalds moving in and Alan Bradley's demise. [/QUOTE]
