Coronation Street’s Theo Silverton takes his vile abuse of Todd Grimshaw to another level of misery next week when he sabotages his boyfriend’s work and attempts to ruin his relationship with George! While Todd sleeps, sneaky Theo throws all his clean white shirts into the laundry so when Todd wakes, he’s horrified to find that his alarm didn’t go off, he’s late for work and his dirty washing is mid-cycle.
“George hasn’t been able to contact Todd all day, so when he finally gets a hold of him, he’s already replaced Todd on the job with Christina,” says our Corrie source.

“Todd has no idea that his downfall is all Theo’s doing, so when his boyfriend seems supportive and encourages him not to take George’s lecture lying down, Todd takes Theo’s advice.”
When George returns, he berates Todd for letting him down – but buoyed by Theo’s advice, Todd flies into a rage and argues right back!
Could Theo’s cruel meddling lead not only to the downfall of Todd’s career, but his friendships too?

“Pete turning up for tea is the final straw for Todd, and he puts his foot down with Theo,” our insider reveals.
“He can’t believe that Theo would invite the man he cheated with into their personal lives, but Theo argues that he needs to do whatever it takes to secure Pete’s business. The question is: what does ‘whatever it takes’ mean to wicked Theo?”
The next day, Theo cruelly blames Todd’s junk food habit for his poor life decisions, then insists that they go for a run to burn calories after having pastries for breakfast. Todd declines, so put-out Theo darkly insists that he’ll go alone – and makes a new friend in James while he’s out.
