This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.201.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪ST47‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a web host's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and they should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 23:54, 31 July 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Tom Schofield''' is [[Ena Sharples]]'s great-nephew, grandson of her brother Tom who emigrated to the US in 1912.

The elder Tom has raised a family in the US, fathering a son also named Tom who has had three children, including Tom. Having lost touch with his family in [[Weatherfield]] not long after leaving the country, the elder Tom asks his grandson to find Ena and persuade her to come and stay at his log cabin between [[Omaha]] and [[Sioux City]], [[Nebraska]], putting up the air fare himself, when the latter is due in the UK for work purposes. The younger Tom works for a travel agent in Omaha, who does package tours of Europe and he has been dispatched to the UK to check out the hotels.

In order to trace Ena, Tom uses a firm of solicitors who put an ad in a local Weatherfield paper asking her to contact them, using her maiden name and last known address of 65 Inkerman Street. Ena, now a widow and living in the [[vestry]] of the Glad Tidings Mission Hall, sees the ad and gets in touch. She is informed only that someone would soon contact her and has no idea who is behind the ad until Tom turns up at her door.

Ena is very happy to learn that her brother is alive and well and still thinks about her. Tom acquaints her with the Schofield line going back to her brother and reads a letter from him in which he talks about his childhood memories of her, which moves her to tears. Startled to receive the invitation to visit him, Ena wavers on accepting as she is set in her ways and is fearful about flying for the first time. It is only when [[Annie Walker (Coronation Street)|Annie Walker]] scoffs at the very idea of her going to America that she announces she is taking up her brother's offer.

Tom is in the area a little while longer before flying home with Ena. In that time he samples Ena's [[Lancashire]] hotpot, and defends her when [[Lionel Petty]] confronts her over a neighbourhood boycott of the [[Corner Shop]] she's enacted. He also has a minor spat with [[Len Fairclough]] when [[Elsie Tanner]] accepts a drink from Tom causing a jealous Len to walk out of the [[Rovers Return Inn]].

Over the next eight years, Tom marries Faye-Marie and settles in [[Manchester, Connecticut]]. In 1973, Tom and Faye-Marie plan a visit to the UK to see the Manchester Festival. A week before they leave, Ena's brother Tom dies in his sleep; Tom and Faye-Marie deliver this news to Ena in person upon their arrival in Weatherfield. Ena takes the news well, finding comfort in the fact that he hadn't suffered.

Tom is not interested in sight-seeing and spends most of the three-week stay in Coronation Street, socialising with Ena's friends and neighbours. He also helps out at the [[Community Centre]]'s Manchester Festival day by serving at the juice counter. On most of these occasions, he is not accompanied by his wife. A notable exception is the Street outing to [[Woburn Abbey]]. Tom makes the most of the visit by bringing along his camera and taking photographs of the animals at Woburn Safari Park. He and Faye-Marie are delighted when Ena introduces them to [[The Duke of Bedford]].

Unlike her husband, Faye-Marie loves to visit new places and wants to experience as much British culture and history as she can. She fancies herself an intellectual and seeks out others for the type of stimulating conversation she does not get from Tom. Despite this, their marriage is a happy one. While in Weatherfield, she latches onto [[Ken Barlow]], a fellow liberal-minded teacher. Their attachment worries Ena, who asks Tom and Faye-Marie why they hardly spend any time together. Tom explains to her that they had an open marriage, which concerns her all the more. Faye-Marie and Ken convince Ena that they are only friends and when Tom demonstrates faith in his wife, Ena accepts that their marriage works for them, even if she does not understand it. The Schofields later return home.
