Right now deluded Tim is doing everything he can to defend his dad, who is doing his best to portray himself as the victim. But Alya Nazir (Sair Khan) does not believe the old man’s act one bit and is determined to show he is a fraud. What will she discover?

At the moment domestic violence victim Yasmeen is in jail after taking a glass bottle to Geoff after he went after her first. Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor) is beginning to see through Geoff’s innocent act and her suspicions will grow over time. This, in turn, cause friction in her relationship.

Corrie exec Iain MacLeod has said of the ongoing storyline, “It would be highly unlikely that Geoff had never committed these behaviours previously.”

“What we have discovered from our research is that perpetrators have a cyclical pattern of behaviour. They lure someone in with love-bombing and grand gestures and that gradually gives way over time.”
The show boss continued, “They then move onto someone else so it’s right we look back at Geoff’s previous relationships and see he has done this before. We will really explore Geoff and Tim’s backstory.”
In so doing the show will reveal more about Tim’s family background and there will be plenty of family drama that comes out. MacLeod reveals, “Tim has been gaslighted since birth so he and Sally are on separate sides and there are tensions that are created as they have polar opposite views.”
