For a while Coronation Street viewers have been hearing Tim Metcalfe's woes after being placed under a sex ban following a triple heart bypass operation. The taxi driver underwent a life saving operation in January after suffering a heart attack.
But after being given the all-clear by a doctor in Monday's hour-long episode (March 28) Tim couldn't wait to make up for lost time with his wife Sally. And Corrie fans couldn't believe what they were seeing after he sent his mum Elaine Jones packing to the cinema.
The episode began with Sally serving up a 'phallic' breakfast of sausages and a banana, which she keenly explained was 'for energy.' And fans took to social media to protest.
