Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) is very aware time is running out for him in Coronation Street, and has now plotted to leave the cobbles a lot sooner than Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) expected.

All of Todd’s loved ones now know that Theo has been abusing him, but are struggling to actually help Todd due to him being unable to escape his now-husband’s clutches.

Terrified all of the time, Todd recently tried to show Theo how much he means to him by agreeing to move to Belfast. Theo hates living in Weatherfield because he’s surrounded by people who know the truth about him, and Todd constantly wants to appease Theo because he knows what will happen if he doesn’t.

After a very awkward and tense interaction with Theo and Todd yesterday, Sarah Platt (Tina O’Brien) updated Christina Boyd (Amy Robbins), George Shuttleworth (Tony Maudsley) and Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby).

Meanwhile, Gary Windass (Mikey North) was at the builder’s yard reminding Theo that he needed to remove the rest of his belongings. When topic of conversation turned to him being an abuser, Theo pointed out that it cannot be true, because his ex-wife hasn’t ever said anything.

With the group desperate to save Todd, Gary had an idea.

Sarah met with Theo’s ex-partner Danielle (Natalie Anderson) and asked if he had ever been violent. Danielle was outraged, and told Theo what Sarah said when he wandered in moments later.

Back at the flat, Todd was relieved when it became clear that Theo wasn’t going to take his anger out on him over Sarah’s interference. Instead, he claimed that the paperwork for the job in Belfast has been sorted, so they can leaver sooner.

While Todd processed this, Summer was outside learning some pretty important information from Carl Webster (Jonathan Howard).

Summer now knows that Carl was driving the car that impacted how Corriedale played out in January. At the moment, she believes his actions led to Billy Mayhew’s (Daniel Brocklebank) death.

Irritated, Carl put her straight and said she needs to look closer to home if she wants to find out what really happened to Billy.
