It's been a long 12 months in Carrigstown, and on our TV screens.

The whole country has been waiting, and waiting, for Katy to finally be released in Fair City.

Last night saw Katy finally return home to her parents, and settle in with a nice cup of tea.

As you would expect, the people of Twitter had much to say. 

Ok so....Katy is out of the box after 1 year. Does that mean that they'll drag out Ciarán dying behind a shed for a year too? #FairCity
