Coronation Street - Current Episode Discussion - IV

Todd is playing a clever game. Round one of Phelan's downfall.

How do you know Todd is playing though and didn't team up with him for real?

How do you know Todd is playing though and didn't team up with him for real?

Just a feeling. Hah a Phelan.

Something has to bring him down.

Something or someone has to bring him down.

Enjoyed the scenes with Todd, Bruno Langley is brilliant in the role and is very watchable. I don't know why he wants to protect that mother of his or his brother.

Eva is really grating on me, I would love some one to smack her in the chops. Shut up, just shut up!!!! Billy deserves to get back with Sean and be completely bored to death for the rest of his naturals. Here endeth the sermon.

I'd love to believe that, but his attitude to Tracey tells me he's not playing a game. He had absolutely no reason to put on a bitter and twisted act for her. All that he needed to say was that he'd scored a better job.

Also, his total lack of remorse and understanding of Billy's feelings about him calling the bishop prove that he's got very little conscience. Bearing that in mind, and remembering that his sole reason for hating Phelan has been his suspicion that he's taking his mum and brother for a ride, why should he care about anyone else now he's reassured that his family are protected and he himself is in line for a big pay day?

Saying all that...Todd's very obvious deep hurt over being dumped has ramped up dark side, so I do think it's quite possible he'll have a change of heart and end up doing the right thing. I just don't think that's his intention at this moment in time.

I hope I'm wrong!

todd now is thinking of himself getting the money

[LouiseP]

He did say he was going to get Phelan. He didn't know how yet but he will get him. I think he has a plan and going undercover.

Yes, I haven't forgotten about that. It was a very pointed remark, and soap writers usually put in lines like that for a reason so I totally understand your point of view and admit it could be correct.

However, Todd pulling a fast one on Phelan and Vinny just doesn't jibe with his behaviour after Billy dumped him in my opinion (for the reasons I've explained above). This is why I'm thinking Todd is sincere at the moment but might have a change of heart and realise he's got the in he wanted to bring Phelan down. (Or alternatively the contradictions could just be bad writing. )

I hope Sean and Billy can become friends again and not go back as a couple, they were very mismatched

They work very well as friends.
