Coronation Street’s Stephen shocked as Tim makes accusations

Coronation Street spoilers follow.

Coronation Street creates even more problems for serial killer Stephen Reid tonight (June 16) as Tim Metcalfe becomes increasingly suspicious of his behaviour.

Stephen is once again put in the hot seat and pushed to provide an explanation after the recent life-or-death drama involving his fiancée Elaine Jones.

Earlier this week, Elaine collapsed in the apartment she shares with Stephen after he secretly replaced her blood pressure medication with caffeine pills.

Stephen found Elaine unconscious and left her for dead, hoping to cash in on the life insurance policy he had taken out on her. However, his plans backfired when Elaine regained consciousness and called 999.

After the near accident, Tim was horrified by what had happened to his mother and he also noticed strange discrepancies in Stephen’s version of events.

In Friday’s episode, Tim confides to his best friend Steve McDonald that he is now suspicious of Stephen.

Taking the bull by the horns, Tim then confronts Stephen. He demands precise details about what happened to Elaine, accusing Stephen of not being honest.

With his latest lies under threat, will Stephen be able to keep his cool?

Todd Boyce, who plays Stephen, recently said: “Tim is a huge risk (for Stephen). He sees who Stephen is and Stephen knows he can’t fool him forever. It really represents bad news for Stephen. »

When asked if Stephen has real feelings for Elaine, Todd said: “I’ve definitely questioned that. I want him to, but unfortunately, I don’t think he does.

“It’s very sad that he’s putting her through what she went through with Geoff, that he’s using her previous abusive relationship to manipulate and use her. He uses people’s weakness and takes advantage of it. »

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and is broadcast on ITVX.
