I fully appreciate that people with reading difficulties will have designed all sorts of coping strategies to get by in life and avoid detection. However, in Tim's case, the writers have stretched the point too far. Tim has lived with Sally for about six months. I'm sure her suspicions would have been aroused before now. So many things in daily life would have tripped him up that he wouldn't be able to explain them all away: reading cooking instructions on a ready meal; shopping lists and notes; holiday brochures; the menu at the Bistro (hardly simple words). Sally would have become Tim's ally in coping even if she didn't get him to go to classes. It feels like a stuck-on storyline so that Maddie can become a saviour, just like Sophie, and Yasmeen can have a success story at the community centre.
I'm not buying Tim's storyline either - I doubt whether illiteracy allows for use of computers and email, which is supposedly how Tim and Faye came to meet.
Also not liking the weird acting style of Dev's Mum.
Correction, not Dev's Mum, I meant Cal's Mum.
I do believe in Tim's story. Tim isn't completely illiterate. HE struggles and he may have something like dyslexia. He's probably great with text-speak because it's written the way it's pronounced, quite often.
I think that the Mary vs Julie for the heart of Dev is going to be interesting. It is good to see the Dev is finally moving on.

I would love to see Julie and Dev get together. I am very fond of Julie and although Dev isn't my type he is a nice guy and totally devoted to his children. Julie would make an awesome step-Mum.
This is a complete copy of an EastEnders story line from a few years ago, where Keith Miller had hidden his reading problems from his family. Since we are about 7 years behind with EastEnders, here in Canada, we keep seeing Corrie copying old EE's stories!
I question the timing of Tim's storyline as it comes on the heels of Kevin's return and I cannot help but think given the writers' tendicies to use so issue storylines [domestic violence,cyberbuulying]as a ploy for affairs,I bet Sally will cheat on Tim with her ex-husband rather than support him.72
