Roy Cropper undergoes lifesaving surgery as he finally reveals his true feelings in Coronation Street
FAN favourite Roy Cropper has sparked worries among soap fans as his health took a nasty turn.
The Coronation Street stalwart undergoes life-changing surgery next week and decides to open up to his loved ones.
The beloved Roy's Rolls Café owner played by David Neilson has left many ITV viewers concerned for his future in the cobbles after suffering from intense chest pains.
Roy tried to downplay his health issues but he was eventually brought to hospital when his chest pains got out of control.
Next week, his pup Freddie goes in for an operation while his niece Nina Lucas (Mollie Gallagher) reveals to Evelyn Plummer (Dame Maureen Lipman) that Roy is sleepwalking again, worrying about his own operation.
During one of his sleepwalking episodes, Roy left the café door open which has led to Freddie stepping out.

Realising his mistake, Roy tells Nina and Evelyn everything and they both go out in search for the dog.
Roy later tells Nina about his operation and hands Evelyn a stack of letters for her to distribute should he die during his operation.
Evelyn later sifts through Roy's letters until she finds the one addressed to her and she holds it up to the light, desperate to know what it says.
While in hospital with Roy, she squeezes his hand and wishes him luck as he's wheeled away for his procedure.
