ITV Coronation Street's Sally Carman responds amid co-star fiance's soap 'affair' scenes

Sally Carman had the best response as her co-star fiance's latest Coronation Street scenes aired.

The Abi Franklin actress is preparing to tie the knot with Joe Duttine, who plays Abi's pal Tim Metcalfe in the ITV soap.

Corrie viewers have watched over the last couple of weeks as Tim hides his latest health news from wife Sally, played by Sally Dynevor.

Just after Christmas, the cabbie was told the news that he needs a triple heart bypass.

Unable to confine in Sally, neighbour and nurse Aggie Bailey has suddenly found herself being Tim's support.

But with Tim's behaviour changing towards his wife, the street icon has found herself thinking Tim is having an affair - and set up a tracker on his phone.

Her husband, however, turned the tables on her and in Wednesday night's trip to the cobbles, viewers saw Sally discover Tim was at a hotel on the app.

With Abi in the Rovers at the time, Sally told her that she was going to confront him and when she turned up and saw him at a table with a bottle of fizz and quickly began accusing him of cheating on her.

However, Tim revealed that he knew what she was up to, and bought the drink for the two of them to share as they had a heart-to-heart.

Earlier in the episode, Tim was seen having a chat with Peter Barlow about Sally's suspicions.

But Peter was quick to rib his mate, telling him: "She thinks your having an affair? Who'd have an affair with you?"

As Tim responded, Peter carried on: "You're a better taxi driver than you are a lothario."

A clip of the exchange was posted on Coronation Street's official Instagram site.

And Tim's real-life other half Sally was quickly in the comments.

"I dunno, I think he’s well fit," she brilliantly replied with fans responding back.

"@sally_carman__ hahahahahha LOVE THAT," @ lucymuscroft3287 replied.

@sprinkle_scrubsx said: "@sally_carman__ say that to Kevin. Just kidding. You’re an amazing actress hun you keep doing brilliantly."

"My mate Kev won’t be happy," @xmj.g11 joked.

@parrswoodmichael69 then cheekily asked: "@sally_carman__ Tim or Joe??" to which the soap star replied: "Both, but Joe pips it."

Sally and Joe are thought to have started their relationship in the summer of 2018 and moved into a new home together at the end of 2019.

The couple then announced the happy news that they were engaged in March 2020.

And the soap actors are planning their big day for 2022 during Sally's favourite time of year - Christmas.
