Coronation Street viewers have spotted as inconsistency regarding Tyrone's mum in the latest episode of the ITV show. 

In last night's episode of Coronation Street (which aired Friday, 30th June 2023) Evelyn received a call from the hospital, only to discover that Cassie had discharged herself. When Evelyn returned home, she was horrified to see Cassie there, posing as someone called Cath, with Tyrone none the wiser. 

Viewers took to Twitter to comment on the scene, with one writing, 'Tyrone's mam is only about 10 years older than him. With Fiz away, I wouldn't mind betting he has a crack at her.'
