Coronation Street Spoiler Insights

Corrie spoilers reveal that the actor told Inside Soap magazine that Todd definitely wants Billy back. However, if he can cause some chaos while doing that, then all the better. Of course, the only person who actually enjoys the chaos is Todd. It’s ruining Billy (Daniel Brocklebank) and Paul’s relationship. While Billy has warned his partner about how his ex can expertly manipulate situations, Paul is still reacting exactly the way that Todd wants.

Befriending Paul Foreman

Fans of the soap have seen Todd befriend his competition and try to make it seem like the drama is over. That they can actually be buddies. While Paul (Peter Ash) has been fooled, viewers know exactly what is going on. It seems that the manipulative schemer will continue trying to destroy Billy and Paul’s relationship, and just like before, he will fall for the mind games.

Identifying Weaknesses

Coronation Street spoilers reveal that Gareth explained that Todd (Gareth Pierce) is pretending to be buddies with Paul in order to get him to talk. In order to exploit his weaknesses, he needs to know what they are. There is one topic that is still fresh and raw for Paul — and that is the sexual abuse he endured as a boy by pedophile Kel Hinchley. Viewers watched the emotional storyline not too long ago and it was a real struggle for Paul, as well as his friends and family.

Using Abuse History As Ammunition

It is confirmed by the actor that Todd will use something that happens at the helpline as a way to target and destroy Paul. He said,

“Volunteering at the helpline is just another way of getting into Paul’s orbit. Todd knows that he wants to toy with Paul, but hasn’t figured out how he’s going to do that. So, when he finds out about the helpline, Todd wants to be on the inside of that as well.”

Any decent human being wouldn’t dare cross the line that Todd does, so what happens now? Could Paul end up completing snapping and lose control when he discovers the truth?
