Says it all really, doesn't it? What's that saying about a woman scorned? Or in this case, an over the top drama queen scorned. I just hope Todd and Billy have the brains to figure this out.

Even so, the fact that he's thinking about revenge makes him a less perfect person than you and mariba make him out to be. mariba literally said "not Sean, he's too nice."Quote:

Me too. I just cannot get over the kissing pic. It's so beautiful and cute and romantic :) Todd will always be Todd though. He has a big mouth and he will say things without thinking so it comes out wrong and he only ends up sabotaging himself. It's very in-character but also terribly frustrating for us as viewers, especially with all the progress he has made lately.Quote:

It is incredibly frustrating but i'll be interesting to see just how he manages to win Billy back and if he can finally face up to some of his flaws and his somewhat self destructive behavior. Personally I'm intrigued by how the moving in situation comes about seeing that Billy wants to take things slow.

Right but now we know Sean DID do his revenge plot. He called the hotel to cancel the room. Only after Eva talked to him did he change his mind. So in this instance he actually did go through with it. It wasn't just "a thought". That's why it's ridiculous to say Sean can't do it to Billy because he's too nice.Quote:

Aww. Not to the Caz/Maria thing but Billy. Daniel said in an interview just recently that their relationship was still in the lust stage but very much heading towards love. I can't wait for the first person to say the big ily. I reckon Todd will be the first to say it.
Still catching up with episodes . Todd was really horrible to Billy at the hotel. How can Billy say that's the best thing that's come along for him when he treated him like that. Corrie writers are messing up this storyline with making Todd some Jekyll and Hyde character. Not impressed at all
Because they both made a mistake. Sure, Todd was slightly worse, considering the nasty stuff that he said. But Billy clearly overreacted. His comment wasn't even that bad. They both knew they had blown it. And Todd profoundly apologized, so I'm fine with it. I do agree though that this is the start of "evil Todd", and I don't like it one bit. He has been so selfless up until now, as soon as he doesn't get what he wants he reverts back to the selfish, manipulative Todd again and it's jut so annoying.Quote:

When does Todd first find out about Phelan’s building scam?
Todd has known that Phelan is not a good guy for a long time. He overhears conversations and because he is quick and quite a clever guy, he can put two and two together.
He is constantly confronting Pat and vows to find proof of the building scam to give to the police.
Why can’t he report Phelan to the police?
Todd’s frustrated because he feels that the police won’t take him seriously. Phelan has also stated there would be bad implications on Eileen and Jason’s finances so Todd decides the best thing to do is keep his mouth shut.
How does Todd react when Phelan calls him to the building site for a chat?
Todd is pleased. He thinks he finally has Phelan on the back foot but, unbeknown to him, things are about to go from bad to worse after he leaves his phone in the Rovers...

Sean and Billy - Coronation Street - ITV
Sean gets a call on Todd's phone from the Bishop!
Billy finds out that Todd has reported them to the Bishop. Can you tell us why he did that?
Todd is testing Billy’s morals and whether he is more important to him than his congregation. Todd does care a lot about himself so when Billy first mentions that he might leave the church, in the back of Todd’s mind he just focuses on: ‘Wow, Billy really does like me because he is willing to give all that up.’
So that is what spurs Todd on. He thinks that Billy just needs that extra push and he later tells Billy that he did it for him so he could be free to be himself.
I don’t believe Todd though. I think Todd did it for himself and maybe like 5% he did it for Billy!
How does Billy react when Todd explains himself?
Billy is furious and says it is over, that’s it, clean cut for him. He says ‘I don’t understand you Todd, you can be nice when you want to be.’ He is baffled by Todd’s behaviour and Todd feels so bad when Billy dumps him, he’s upset.
Why does Todd go to the building site?
Firstly, Phelan keeps giving Todd little digs about working in a flower shop with all his pansies. He goads Todd with the promise of working with the big boys, making some money and doing something with his life. Phelan is telling the truth from his point of view and Todd takes it onboard. So when Billy says it’s over, that is the catalyst for Todd.
He looks at what he has got and decides he might as well step up to what Billy thinks of him, put his morals on the back burner and just get on with it.
How does Phelan react to Todd’s change of heart?
Phelan is suspicious but like most things in life you know when someone is telling you the truth. Todd tells Phelan it is because he is twisted and that’s who he is… and Phelan buys it!
I think Phelan sees a lot of himself in Todd.
Do you think Todd is a match for Phelan? Or do you think they could be a dangerous team together?
Yes, they are a match for each other but that is a hard one because I really like Connor (who plays Phelan) and I really like working with him. So if that means that I prefer the two of them in some dastardly plan together, then so be it. We work well together because he is a very serious actor and I take it very seriously too so we both really care about the work.
What reaction do you get from viewers - are they ‘Team Todd’ or ‘Team Phelan’?
Connor knows more about this than me because I try not to think about it. People in the street ask me, ‘When is Phelan going to get his comeuppance,’ as they would do because that’s what happens with a villain. People want that and villains have to get their just deserts...
Would you personally like Todd to be the one to bring Phelan down?
Yes, of course because I love the drama!
He seems a bit nicer these days - do you prefer good Todd or bad Todd?
I don’t think they both have to be mutually exclusive. I like both sides to him and I like that you can’t pin him down which makes interesting viewing because you don’t know what he is going to do next.
He is very unpredictable and that’s great to act. I don’t want to be the nice guy in the pub! It is harder for me to get where he is coming from when he is doing these bad things because that’s not me, I consider myself quite a nice guy, but either way it is fun!
What else is coming up for Todd?
We will see Todd using his effortless charm to fleece his neighbours but, realising he is playing with fire, it’s a ticking time-bomb before Todd and Phelan lock horns again.
Although Todd and Phelan are both similar characters in their twisted ways, Todd has one weakness and Phelan knows exactly how to use this to his advantage.
Todd is in real danger if he doesn’t act smart and quick.

Coronation Street spoilers: Vinny kills Todd Grimshaw? There could be a shock twist ahead
Things are about to get even more sinister in Coronation Street and fan favourite Todd Grimshaw looks set to be in the firing line – as con artist Vinny vows to kill him if he messes up the flat scam.
And with Pat Phelan set to warn Todd that his dodgy mate is capable of all sorts, could we be about to lose Todd in a shock twist later this year as the storyline steps up a gear? Actor Connor McIntyre, who plays Phelan, has suggested that we shouldn’t be underestimating Vinny – perhaps he could even be worse than Phelan himself!
He said: ‘Phelan is extremely anxious for two reasons – first of all, that rocks the whole boat with Eileen. Also, we know there’s history between Phelan and Vinny. Phelan knows that Todd pulling out represents real dangers in terms of Vinny just saying, “I’m going to kill him.” Now, for Phelan, that would wreck the whole deck of cards also, so he’s very anxious.
‘Vinny is a very dangerous presence and the worries are manifold. Phelan knows what Vinny is capable of – he’s scared in the sense of the repercussions of what Vinny could do. Vinny is a loose cannon. Phelan’s a schemer, a thinker, a manipulator, whereas Phelan is calculated, Vinny is black and white. This represents a danger. Phelan is trying to manage everybody at the same time and no doubt, as time goes on, we will see the pressures of that taking their toll.’
Look out Todd!
I'm hoping this is just to scare use but if they do kill him off, they'd have lost a viewer because Todd's my favourite character. Plus it'll break Billy's heart.
I agree 100 % with this.Quote:

If you didn't catch Coronation Street last night - easily done when they schedule in a random Thursday episode - you will have missed Todd Grimshaw finally explaining what on earth happened to him down in London.
Ever since Todd returned to the cobbles in 2013, fans have wondered about the reasons for his drastic personality change. Or, to put it another way, why he was suddenly a total sod with no explanation.
Todd has turned nicer this year by supporting his ex Sarah Platt through her problems and striking up an unexpected relationship with Billy the Vicar.
Although the latter example definitely turned sour when he tried to cause trouble for Billy by reporting him to the Bishop.
Thursday's episode saw Todd take a trip to A&E after being pricked with a used needle when he was helping to clear out an empty house with Billy.
While enduring a long wait to be seen, Todd opened up to Billy over a difficult experience in London that we've never heard about before - when he fell for a married man called Sam and had his heart broken.
Todd told Billy: "There was this guy when I lived in London, he was HIV positive. He was married 12 years, two kids, Mr Respectable. He walked away from all that for me.
"I just felt that we could deal with anything, so long as we were together. So when he was diagnosed, he took it really badly. He thought I'd given it to him. It was weird because I felt guilty that I was fine and he had all that to deal with, but I stood by him every step of the way.
"I was gonna propose to him and I had the ring in my pocket - and he told me he was going back to his wife. I don't expect sympathy, what goes around comes round, I know that.
"But when he left me, it felt like I'd been hit by a train. So if anyone gets too close, I push them away or I do something to make them leave. Either way, I just won't trust anyone like that again."

Though at least he wasn't taking himself too seriously, adding: "Dramatic, moi?"
We're not sure it quite justifies everything Todd did when he returned to the cobbles as a villain three years ago - but at least we have some more understanding of the whole thing now.
(Unless he was just making the whole thing up for sympathy. In which case, as you were.)

Yep. Todd is mentioned in the spoilers for the 17th so he'll definitely be turning up next week.Quote:
