Coronation Street fans didn’t hold back during Wednesday night’s episode, taking to social media within minutes to voice the same complaint about Todd Grimshaw and Theo Silverton’s ongoing drama.

The episode opened with Todd (Gareth Pierce) returning home after spending the night on Billy Mayhew’s (Daniel Brocklebank) sofa — only to walk straight into Theo’s (James Cartwright) fury. Despite Todd insisting that nothing happened, the tension between the couple quickly boiled over.

When Pete suddenly emerged from the bathroom, Theo accused Todd of sneaking around behind his back, sparking a heated argument that left fans divided — and frustrated.

“This storyline is dragging!” say viewers

As Todd finally snapped and told Theo to pack his bags, many viewers praised him for standing up for himself — but others were less impressed, calling the plot “a yawnfest.”

“Finally, Todd has found his voice,” one fan posted on X (formerly Twitter). “I hope this is for real — this storyline is a big fat yawnfest. Someone end it already!”

Another viewer added:

“Good on you, Todd. Sadly, I think he’ll take Theo back. #Corrie”

A third agreed, writing:

“Get rid of him, Todd! You can do so much better than Theo. #CoronationStreet”

The consensus among many long-time fans was clear — while they’re glad Todd is finally pushing back, they’re growing tired of the cycle of tension and reconciliation that’s defined the pair’s relationship.

Todd’s breaking point

This week’s scenes showed Todd reach a breaking point as Theo twisted the truth about his recent health scare, turning the situation around to make Todd feel guilty. In a rare moment of defiance, Todd told Theo to leave — a move fans hope marks the beginning of a stronger, more self-assured version of the character.

Still, viewers fear he may fall back into old habits. “I bet he forgives him next week,” one commenter predicted. “He always does.”

A rocky romance

The troubled romance between Todd and Theo has been anything but smooth. Recent episodes have explored Theo’s struggle to come to terms with his sexuality, as well as Todd’s attempts to support him despite repeated emotional setbacks.

Just last month, the pair tried to move forward after Theo agreed to join Todd and friends for a night out in Manchester’s gay village — but the night ended in disaster when Theo clashed with a man from his past, Owen, leading to a violent confrontation outside the club.

What’s next for Todd?

With Todd now seemingly cutting ties, fans are hoping this signals a new chapter for the character — one free from manipulation and heartache. However, Coronation Street insiders hint that Theo may not give up easily, suggesting this won’t be the last viewers see of him.

“Todd’s journey isn’t over,” teased one source. “He’s about to rediscover who he really is — and it won’t be easy.”
