In Coronation Street, Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) is making an effort to connect with his real mother Cassie (Claire Sweeney), but Evelyn Plummer (Maureen Lipman) is still observing from the sidelines because she believes Cassie will soon relapse.
A few weeks ago, Cassie told Tyrone that she is his mother. Tyrone first found it difficult to absorb what had happened because it happened so suddenly and dramatically.
At his house, Tyrone listened as Evelyn disclosed that she had attended Ty and Fiz’s (Jennie McAlpine) wedding last Christmas knowing Cassie might have been there to witness. Evelyn said that she had known Cassie was alive for the better part of a year.
Cassie visits the bar in following episodes as Tyrone makes an effort to get to know her, and she decides to play a game of gin rummy with Kirk (Andy Whyment) and Dev (Jimmi Harkishin).
Ty finds Cassie three sheets to the wind when he gets there and takes her inside.
At number nine, Tyrone gives Cassie a pint of water and cautions her not to blow it since he is happy of how well she is recovering.
Tyrone gives Cassie £20 at the end of the week and instructs her to get something for tea.
Tyrone finds out Cassie is still in the stores when he gets back from the dentist.
Evelyn informs Tyrone that he should prepare for the worst since she is well aware of what can occur.
When Cassie eventually returns, how will she be feeling?
“She’s simply never had that family or that loving atmosphere,” said Claire Sweeney.
She’s dated bad guys, and her mother didn’t want to know. She only desires to belong to a family and to be loved. basic actions like sipping tea while watching the kids get ready and other basic scenarios make this clear. My scene from yesterday. It’s like the finest thing she’s ever done in her life, and we were just walking to the bus stop when it happened.
She’s never had any of it, you know. But she desires a piece of it. And Evelyn has a lot to cope with because she had the information but withheld it from her before telling him she had passed away.
