Where is he? (Picture: ITV)

Tim Metcalfe (Joe Duttine) has gone missing after a showdown with Stephen Reid (Todd Boyce) in Coronation Street and right now, we don’t know if he’s dead or alive.

During Monday’s (October 9) episode, Tim was at the canal poking around in the water after once again growing suspicious of Stephen. He noticed a corpse’s hand float to the surface and ran back to his cab to call the police – but things went horrifically wrong from there.

After reporting the dead body, Tim was very nearly strangled to death by Stephen, who had jumped in the back of his car.

He then escaped, tried to find safety, but tripped on his shoelaces and was then attacked by his enemy.

The last we saw of Tim, he was in the boot of his car. Stephen had driven it to the woods and was preparing to set it on fire, but had to hide after seeing a police helicopter overhead.

Tonight (October 11), Sally (Sally Dynevor) started to wonder where Tim had gone. She was under the impression that he had ignored wedding anniversary plans to watch a football game with Kevin (Michael Le Vell) but when he told Sally that Tim never went, concern started to grow.

Once Sally learnt a body had been removed from the canal, she raced over with Elaine (Paula Wilcox) and Gail (Helen Worth).

Unfortunately, she didn’t have any luck but at the station, DS Swain (Vicky Myers) confirmed that the body doesn’t belong to Tim.

With her final words to her husband ringing in her ears, Sally set about organising a search. She enlisted the help of Kevin and together, they sat in the cafe and rang multiple hospitals and pubs, trying to get some idea of Tim’s final movements.
