Coronation Street fans are out for justice after Peter Barlow discovered the surgeon who helped save his life used his operation as a competition with his doctor mates. During Monday night's edition of the ITV soap, the recovering alcoholic was ecstatic after being given a clean bill of health a year after his liver transplant last year.
As an act of goodwill, Peter and wife Carla headed to the hospital to give Mr Thorne a bottle of whisky for performing his life-saving surgery. But as he arrived at Weatherfield General, Aggie Bailey had some shocking news to share. Last week, the nurse overheard Mr Thorne gloating to a colleague how he rushed Peter's operation in order to win a bet.
She later discovered that all Mr Thorne's operations have been cancelled until further notice and when Peter arrived at the hospital, she broke the news to him and Carla about what she had discovered. Understandably, Peter was furious and demanded an explanation and an apology.
