Tim collapses as Sally learns the truth

EMBARGO 11 JAN 2022 WK 3 CORONATION STREET TIM

Sal's suspicions are fuelled by Shona Platt (Julia Goulding) observing how much time Tim and Aggie Bailey (Lorna Laidlaw) are spending together, and Mrs M puts a tracker on his phone hoping to catch him in the act. Eventually she confronts the pair but as Tim prepares to come clean about his health he collapses and is rushed to hospital. Sally finally learns her husband needs a triple heart bypass and could drop dead any moment, how will she feel about being kept in the dark?
