After enjoying several months of maternity leave, Coronation Street's Julia Goulding has now gone back to work as Shona Ramsey.

The actress gave birth to a boy named Franklin on November 30, but it hasn't taken her long to jump straight back into her character's shoes, who was last seen with major memory loss after being shot on Christmas Day.
