Coronation Street's Fiz Dobbs has a major meltdown next week, as the stress of caring for her husband Tyrone takes its toll. Run ragged at home, she takes her frustrations out at work – and starts trashing the factory.
"We've all got our tipping point – and we're about to see Fiz's," our Corrie source explains. "She's been close to the edge for weeks, and not just because of Ty's condition – the whole family is getting on her nerves. What consequences will there be after her moment of rage?"
When Tyrone was mown down in a hit-and-run, he suffered some extremely serious injuries. At one point it looked as though he may never walk again, but while doctors are hopeful of a full recovery, progress has been slow.
Adapting to using a wheelchair and struggling with day-to-day tasks has been tough for Tyrone, and this has put pressure on Fiz to care for her other half.
