Tonight (July 28) on the soap, Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) is just a moment away from his downfall as the teenager Will (Ben Hackett) sides with Paul Foreman (Peter Ash) after Todd betrayed him with the money he got from the stolen heat pump.
Will also befriends Billy’s foster daughter, Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) to confess to her the truth about Todd. Making sure he gets the last laugh, Will sends Paul the video he secretly filmed with Todd relishing his success of stealing the expensive pump and breaking Billy’s (Daniel Brocklebank) relationship with Paul.
Next week, Todd is publicly shamed when a video filmed by his accomplice Will (Ben Hackett) is played in front of the audience during the new calendar charity event, leading to his arrest.
Coronation Street Spoilers – George Shuttleworth Opens His Flat To Todd Grimshaw
As a consequence, Todd is kicked out of the flat with nowhere else to lay his head for the night except at the funeral parlor.
After learning he is homeless, George Shuttleworth tells Todd’s mom Eileen Grimshaw (Sue Cleaver) to ease his distress.
Todd opens up to George he’s struggling to choose a rental property as he’s paying back the heat pump he stole. When he admits he got nowhere to stay, George insists he stay with him in his abode.
But another drama is about to happen later next week with an unexpected enemy when Shona Ramsey (Julia Goulding) slaps a parking ticket on one of the parlor’s hearse windshields after Todd parked the car outside Number 8.
The tension rises when Todd finds out that the hearse is covered with shaving foam. He confronts Shona that she’s committing fraud and demands she provide money for the clean-up.
The actor Gareth Pierce has opened up about Todd finding comfort in George in an interview documented by “Coronation Street Blog.” He said he’s enjoying playing the “undertaker stuff” with George as he senses a fatherly connection with him.
“I feel as though the absence of a father for Todd can definitely explain a lot of why he is the way he is,” Gareth explained.
Coronation Street Spoilers – Todd Grimshaw Takes Revenge?
Although Todd is set to be at his lowest after his secrets are revealed, Gareth teased Todd’s not going to abandon his dark side.
“It might make him re-examine himself because there’s a self-awareness that’s creeping in with Todd anyway, and he’s certainly very self-centered, so maybe he can turn that around to being a bit more aware of some of those reason he is how he is,” he said.
“I don’t think we’re going to see Todd’s moral compass completely reset. I think he’s always going to be a bit of a player and a bit of a someone who’s able to get what he wants out of a situation,” he added.
