Coronation Street (29 Aug 2025) delivered a brutal emotional clash as Todd faced Theo’s paranoia head-on, leaving their relationship hanging by a thread.

Heated Words, Broken Trust

The cracks between Todd and Theo finally split open. Todd, worn down by the chaos around Miles, confronted Theo for meddling behind his back. He reminded him sharply that he had “promised not to do anything” and snapped that interfering had been “a bad idea from the start.” For Todd, the fear was crystal clear: if Miles had been charged, “that could have affected his whole life.”

But Theo refused to see it that way. His anger spiralled, and when Todd accused him of being “a self-righteous prat,” the gloves came off. Theo demanded: “Whose side are you on?” His suspicion hardened into accusation, convinced that Todd had been comforting Billy and excusing the attack as something Billy “didn’t mean.”

Theo’s Ultimatum

The fight only grew darker as Theo laid bare his insecurities. He railed against Billy, calling him jealous and obsessed, determined to drive a wedge into Todd’s loyalties. “I don’t want you seeing Billy any more,” Theo declared coldly. “It’s me or Billy. You need to choose.”

For Todd, the words landed like a hammer blow. His attempt to explain that he was also juggling custody issues with Danielle fell on deaf ears. Theo twisted it, convinced that any setback would only hand victory to his ex — and blamed Todd for making things worse.

Todd Left Isolated

The emotional cost on Todd was stark. What began as an effort to protect Miles had left him punished and alienated. “I did something I thought was right, and it’s had unintended consequences,” he admitted, reflecting the crushing sense of betrayal from the man he cares about.

Theo’s final words were devastatingly simple: “Stay out of my way from now on.” With that, the wall between them was set.

A Fragile Future

This storyline has thrown Todd into turmoil. His instincts to help have only deepened the divide, while Theo’s paranoia and bitterness spiral out of control. Love, loyalty and friendship are collapsing in Weatherfield — and Todd may be left with nothing but regret.
