Coronation Street: Sally and Tim Metcalfe face tension with foster teen Lucy

In the television drama Coronation Street, Sally and Tim Metcalfe face increasing tension regarding Lucy, a troubled teenager they are fostering. Sally has become suspicious of Lucy’s influence after Lucy convinced Shanice Michaelis to break house rules by visiting the Kabin alone.

Lucy’s behavior has caused significant unease, including her lack of visible emotion during her mother Rachel’s funeral. The teenager is the daughter of Tim’s cousin, Richie, who killed Rachel during a confrontation. Lucy has previously expressed resentment toward Tim, blaming him for the events leading to her mother's death and maintaining a defensive loyalty toward her father.
