Coronation Street fans will get an unexpected helping of the ITV soap tonight for a whole hour after it was cancelled for football last week.
This evening's dramatic episode will involve blackmail, bitter spats and even a hospital dash.
Poor Tim Metcalfe, played by Joe Duttine, is left incredibly ill this evening and is rushed to hospital as his family fears the worst.
Tim feels bad at the beginning of tonight's episode and takes some indigestion tablets to stem the pain.
Gina calls in at the cab office and is horrified when she sees the state Tim is in.

He returns home and tries to ignore the pains in his chest and arm but Gina insists on staying with him until she is sure he is ok.
Gina heads to No 8 and tells Sally that he needs to see a doctor. However Sally quickly realises that something is wrong and calls the ambulance. Will he be ok?
Meanwhile Gary is forced to resort to blackmail as he desperately calls Peter and demands his cash or else he will call the police on Carla.
Peter hands over £9,000 to Gary and says that it was all he was able to get for the boat.
In return, Gary hands the cash over to Rick and hopes that he is off the hook.
Unfortunately, it looks like he is in even more trouble as Rick tells him that he now works for him...
*Coronation Street airs tonight at 8pm for an hour on ITV
