Coronation Street fans left scratching heads as scenes ‘air in wrong order’

Coronation Street fans were left confused when Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) was seen sitting in the Rovers, then back at the garage, and back at the pub again.

Coronation Street fans were left puzzled when scenes appeared to air in the wrong order during Monday night’s episode. Viewers of ITV’s flagship soap tuned in for the first instalment of the week to catch up with the daily lives of their favourite Weatherfield residents, but were left wondering what was happening with the passage of time.

Fans will know that Tyrone Dobbs (Alan Halsall) had a scene in the Rovers Return in what seemed to be early in the working day and was then seen working at the garage with Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard) and Kevin Webster (Michael Le Vell) but was then again back in the same position in the pub as earlier as if no time had passed at all. It all came amid a huge storyline that had seen Tyrone become involved in Kevin’s lie about having cancer.

One viewer took to Reddit to say: “There was a scene with Tyrone moping in the Rovers with Lauren and Asha talking about him. Then we see Tyrone in the garage with Carl and Kevin.

“Then Tyrone’s back to moping in the pub again in exactly the same position as before. Lauren remarks to Kevin that he’s been depressing everyone for a while. I suppose it’s possible Tyrone went for a mope, went back to work, then back to the Rovers for another mope but it seems a bit odd.”

Another viewer said they had wondered the same and a third pointed out that the presented time zone of the fictional Manchester backstreet has become something of a ‘real issue’ of late because nothing seems to be established correctly.

They wrote: “When he left the garage he said he’d go talk to Kevin. Then Kevin walks in to find him in the Rovers. “Chronology, if that’s the correct term, is a real issue on the show. Time contracts and expands as required or doesn’t move at all if that’s required lol”.

Little is known about the times depicted within the episode, but, what is clear, is that all events mentioned by Reddit users have to have taken place at some point in the morning. Fans will know that on Monday’s episode, things between Abi Webster (Sally Carman) and her brother-in-law boiled over into a rendezvous after weeks of speculation. Their physical encounter came about after Abi had discovered her husband’s lies over the status of his cancer treatment, having been given the all-clear weeks ago.

He opted to not inform his wife that he was no longer suffering, and when she discovered the truth after Tyrone blurted it out, she confronted Kevin, with the clock in their house being set at almost exactly 12 o’clock. She immediately stormed back over to the garage, which is round the corner, to act on her feelings for Carl. At this point, the clock on the wall of the garage office read about two minutes to one and, in the next scene, when the pair were getting dressed again, the time read five past one.

In Monday’s episode, Carl declared that his whole encounter with Abi was ‘worth the wait’ and they kissed again as Abi claimed that things with Kevin were over. But later, in the Rovers, Carl did not seem so keen on the idea of Abi calling off her entire marriage as she weighed up what they had begun. As viewers will know, last week, Carl organised the theft of an expensive car and is aware that his brother could have him arrested at any moment. “Don’t I deserve to be happy?”, she asked him and he told her to go home to be with Kevin.

But later on, Kevin’s son Jack (Kyran Bowes) caught Abi packing her bags and she told him she was just ‘going on a little break’, and he tried to plead with her to stay. She shared a hug with him and promised him she would be ‘staying put’ for the foreseeable. When Kevin asked what had made her change her mind, she snapped at him that she was staying for the children and he promised her he would do ‘anything’ to make it up to her, completely unaware of her own infidelity.
