\t\t\"Todd

Did Gary Windass<\/a>\u00a0(Mikey North<\/a>) kill\u00a0Theo Silverton<\/a> (James Cartwright<\/a>)?\u00a0Is he having an affair with Sarah Platt<\/a>\u00a0(Tina O\u2019Brien<\/a>)?\u00a0Todd Grimshaw<\/a>\u00a0(Gareth Pierce<\/a>) puts his detective hat on to investigate.<\/p>\n

It speaks to just how evil Theo was that six Coronation Street residents are in the frame for his murder<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The obvious suspect is Todd himself, whose year long toxic relationship with the raging narcissist was rife with abuse, coercion and gaslighting<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, most of Todd\u2019s nearest and dearest are persons of interest in the case too, including his mentor and father figure,\u00a0George Shuttleworth<\/a> (Tony Maudsley<\/a>) and partner Christina Boyd<\/a>\u00a0(Amy Robbins<\/a>), close friend and adoptive daughter\u00a0Summer Spellman<\/a>\u00a0(Harriet Bibby<\/a>) and Theo\u2019s scorned ex-wife Danielle Silverton (Natalie Anderson).<\/p>\n

\t\t\"FROM
\n\t\tWhodunnit? (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

Coming right in at number one is bad-boy builder Gary, Theo\u2019s employer and best mate \u2013 at least until he found out what an abusive piece of garbage he was. <\/p>\n

The fact that Gary has killed before<\/a> doesn\u2019t exactly help his case. Nor does the fact he smashed up Theo\u2019s van with a sledgehammer on the day he died before deleting the footage.<\/p>\n

When the police came calling, Gary\u2019s wife Maria Connor<\/a>\u00a0(Samia Longchambon<\/a>)\u00a0covered for him by giving a false alibi.<\/p>\n

However, Gary might have been getting up to more mischief than murder that night\u2026 by doing the dirty with his old flame<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Ever since Sarah was attacked on that fateful night, she and her ex-beau have been acting pretty cosy just like old times, having lots of private conservations with each other. Gary\u2019s even jumped down Maria\u2019s throat for criticising her<\/a>, making him seem pretty suspicious.<\/p>\n

It doesn\u2019t help that one of police officers investigation the case just so happens to be Sarah\u2019s current boyfriend DS\u00a0Kit Green<\/a>\u00a0(Jacob Roberts)<\/a>, who\u2019s already hauled the bad boy builder in for questioning. <\/p>\n

Make no mistake, Kit is gunning for Gary.<\/p>\n

\t\t\"Kit
\n\t\tKit\u2019s got nothing on Gary\u2026 yet. (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

Todd\u2019s not having an easy time either. Devastated to learn that Summer made herself purposefully ill<\/a> to avoid going to prison for Theo\u2019s murder, the hits just kept on coming when the police discovered Todd\u2019s phone<\/a> with the fingerprints of\u00a0Brody Michaelis (Ryan Mulvey) all over it.<\/p>\n

He\u2019s also aware that Sarah and Gary are keeping some kind of secret. <\/p>\n

Whatever it is, it\u2019s about to be exposed at the dinner party from hell<\/a>. With Kit mulling the idea of proposing to Sarah, it\u2019s sure to be an evening to remember. <\/p>\n

We already know the episode will feature flashbacks and flashforwards, showing the dinner party ending with smashed glass and blood on the table cloth\u2026 but whose?<\/p>\n

The truth is served at the dinner party in upcoming episodes of Coronation Street<\/a> an as old animosities bubble under. Maria aims some bitchy comments at Sarah, while Kit does his best to get Gary alone, making pointed remarks about people\u2019s propensity to lie.<\/p>\n

And as Maria raises a toast to the hosts she announces that Gary and Sarah have been conducting an affair for weeks. Everyone reels.<\/p>\n

\t\t\"Todd
\n\t\tWell this is awkward\u2026 (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

After the dinner party disaster, odd calls to see Sarah and tells her he suspects there\u2019s more to the situation with her and Gary than meets the eye. Will she come clean?<\/p>\n

\t\t\"Sarah
\n\t\tWill Sarah be straight with Todd? (Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n

On the street, Gary goads Kit, pointing out that he has no actual evidence against him. Gary assures Todd that there is no affair but Sarah both likes and trusts him and Kit\u2019s jealous which is why he\u2019s trying to pin the murder on him. <\/p>\n

Todd tackles Sarah, wondering if Gary knows more than he\u2019s letting on about Theo\u2019s murder. Can Sarah help Todd find some answers?<\/p>\n
