The day had finally come for Tim Metcalfe to undergo heart surgery in Coronation Street.
Fans of the ITV soap have known for weeks that the cabbie needed a triple bypass.
Tim has been seen getting his affairs in order and getting support from nurse and neighbour, Aggie Bailey.
But the one person he hadn't told about his impending op was wife Sally - who ended up thinking he was having an affair.

Tim's heart surgery ended up being brought forwards after a confrontation by Sally saw him collapse and rushed into hospital.
During Monday night's trip to the cobbles, Sally was still in an unforgiving mood as her husband lay in his hospital bed waiting to be taken to theatre.
Kevin Webster also visited his friend while Tim's mum Elaine also made an appearance, shocked to learn from granddaughter Faye that her son was about to undergo major surgery.
But after leaving Tim, Sally was unable to see her husband before his surgery as the police swooped in and arrested the former Mayor of Weatherfield after a story about her having a wee in a public place ended up on the front page of the Weatherfield Gazette.
Sally, however, kicked off and booted a vending machine, with poor Tim thinking he was dreaming as he caught sight of his wife being carted away as he went under.
Before the end of the Corrie double bill, Tim was back on the ward and chatting to his wife.
And fans couldn't help but point out a plot hole.

"Major heart surgery and back on the ward cracking jokes a few hours later?!" @Debraa67 questioned.
