Time’s up for evil abuser Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) next week in Coronation Street.

After months of coercion, financial and verbal abuse and savage beatings, Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) finally breaks free of his torturous existence and reports all of Theo’s sickening behaviour to the police, but will Theo go down without a fight?

Debbie Webster (Sue Devaney) is horrified to learn of what son Carl (Jonathan Howard) has done to Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) and when his behaviour directly impacts her dementia, her husband Ronnie Bailey (Vinta Morgan) decides to take action, but can he overcome a deeply devious Carl?

Elsewhere, Roy Cropper’s (David Neilson) life is in serious danger, Mal Roper (Tim Treloar) strikes back against Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) and Eva Price (Catherine Tyldesley) tries her damnedest to heal things among the Driscoll clan.

You ready to dive in? Let’s go…

Sunday, April 12

Roy’s under the weather and, returning home from his bat watch, gives Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances-Brown) the day off and shuts up shop, heading up to bed. When Carla Connor (Alison King), Dev Alahan (Jimmi Harkishin) and Bernie Winter-Alahan (Jane Hazlegrove) spot smoke pouring from Roy’s flat, and unaware that he returned home at all, there’s enormous risk that nobody is coming to rescue him as he lays upstairs, unconscious.

Summer’s unable to forget what Carl said about Theo and Billy Mayhew’s (Daniel Brocklebank) death, and heads to his flat to question him further, but is floored when she learns that Todd and Theo will be leaving for Belfast. Later, alone with Todd, she tells him that she suspects Theo is responsible for Billy’s grisly demise.

When George Shuttleworth (Tony Maudsley) confides in sister Glenda (Jodie Prenger) that he’ll have to sell his business at a borderline-offensive price, Christina Boyd (Amy Robbins) is fired up to fix things and begins to scheme.

Monday, April 13

Determined Eva is on a mission to bring her family back together, uniting Ben (Aaron McCusker), Ollie (Raphael Akuwudike), Will (Lucas Hodgson-Wale) and Maggie (Pauline McLynn) at the bistro. Ben invites Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) and Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney) to the family dinner as Eva recites a heartfelt speech to try and fix the issues within their clan.

When Sarah Platt (Tina O’Brien) tells George about Theo’s plan to take Todd away, they unite with Summer and head to the flat, but are scuppered when Theo lies to them through the doorbell speaker that they’ve already left. With Theo showering, Todd finally decides to make a break for freedom.

Meanwhile, Debbie’s plot to organise a girly trip away with Sally Metcalfe (Sally Dynevor), Christina, Glenda, and Bernie is ruined when Bernie relays Carl’s offer of exchanging information for cash with Summer to the group and Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers) is unconvinced when Kit denies Mal’s accusations of assault.

Wednesday, April 15

In a single-strand episode, Todd finally takes a stand against Theo’s abuse, reporting him to the police for assault and revealing his ordeal fully to Lisa and Kit.

As he does, Theo becomes painfully aware that his days are numbered and he determines to flee Weatherfield for good as news of his true nature floods the street.

Thursday, April 16

Knowing that hard evidence is needed to strengthen Todd’s case against Theo, Sarah breaks into Theo’s van in order to find a tablet containing video footage of the abuse.

Debbie’s sickened when Carl admits that he knows who killed Billy and tried to sell the information to grieving Summer and throws him out before descending into another dementia episode. Ryan Connor (Ryan Prescott) turns to Ronnie and tells him how unwell Carl is making Debbie.

Elsewhere, Maggie is heartbroken when Ben backs Eva when she and Maggie both intend to use the Rover’s back room, Lisa continues to search for her police badge and Jodie is struck with an idea when she overhears David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) telling Lily (Grace Ashcroft-Gardner) that they can’t afford to get her a tablet for her birthday.

Friday, April 17

Steve tries to glean information from Maggie about his dad, but she’s a tightly closed book. Ben invites Steve to share a pint over a game of darts but first, makes a proclamation.

Todd’s loved ones gather round as he struggles in the aftermath of all he’s suffered at Theo’s hands.

Meanwhile, Carl is all business as he approaches Ronnie, ready to discuss his offer and Jodie creates a seismic rift in the Platt family.
