In the previous episodes of “Corrie,” their problem arose when Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine) suffered from a heart condition, which he decided to keep a secret from his wife, Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor). The matriarch also believed that her husband has been cheating on her when Tim found a friend in Aggie Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw) as he dealt with his heart problem. When Tim finally got the courage to tell the truth about his illness, his wife was left devastated.
When the time of the operation came, the whole family gathered to show support to Tim, until he got better and finally recovered. However, another medical issue arose when Tim doesn’t want to be intimate with Sally. He decided to see Dr. Gaddas but he felt embarrassed by his illness and failed to attend his doctor’s appointment, which made him utter another lie as he said that his impotence is just a reaction to his recent triple bypass operation.
