Will Amy Barlow's real dad be revealed?

(This post was originally posted by Flaming Nora on the Coronation Street Blog November 2012, reposted to this blog with permission.)

Lots of great comments have been going on the Coronation Street Blog here wondering what would happen if it turned out that Steve McDonald wasn't Amy's real dad.  Did he ever get a DNA test or just take psycho Tracy's word that she was up the duff with his kid after she'd driven Roy Cropper to the brink of suicide by pretending it was his?

Corrie fans are asking if there's the possibility that if Amy isn't really the fruit of Steve's loins then could she be the daughter of Wally?  You remember Wally, don't you?

 No, not that Wally, this Wally.



Wally Bannister (played by Bernard Cribbins) was Blanche's boyfriend and appeared on Corrie between May and October 2003.  When Tracy found out that her gran's new fella had a bob or two, a posh house and a swimming pool, she had a fling with him too.   So, if Wally and Tracy did the deed back in 2003, and Tracy got pregnant by him, that would make little Amy around, oh, the right age now, being born in February 2004.  So, yes, it could be possible that Wally is Amy's dad.

Come on, Corrie writers, give us all a chance to laugh at Tracy Barlow and make this story happen. And while you're at it, please, please, please make Steve the real dad of Beth's son Craig while you're on.  It's something we've discussed here before on the Coronation Street Blog.

Ever since Beth and Craig showed up on the street, I have suspected that Craig was Steve's son. I've just been waiting for that shoe to drop.
