Coronation Street viewers were shocked on Monday's episode by the news of Jim McDonald's death. Steve McDonald received the devastating update about his father's passing, which occurred just as his partner Cassie was about to propose. Jim McDonald's last appearance on the show was in 2018, following a storyline involving a con against his ex-wife Liz.
Throughout his time on the cobbles, Jim was involved in numerous dramatic plots, including temporary paralysis and prison sentences for manslaughter and armed robbery. His ex-wife Liz was last seen in 2020, and their son Andy has not appeared since 2009. Despite viewer hopes, neither Liz nor Andy will attend Jim's upcoming funeral.
Spoilers indicate that Steve will feel apprehensive at the funeral, given that both Liz and Andy have cut ties with Jim years prior. Fans have expressed disappointment on social media, wishing for the return of characters like Andy McDonald.
