Coronation Street spoilers<\/a> follow from Monday’s episode (15 December)<\/a>, which is available to watch now on ITVX<\/a> and YouTube<\/a> but hasn’t yet aired on ITV1.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street opens a new chapter of Todd Grimshaw and Theo Silverton’s disturbing storyline tonight \u2013 as the local residents start to realise that something isn’t right in their relationship. As police are called to the cobbles following reports of a domestic disturbance, is Todd any closer to being saved from his ongoing nightmare?<\/p>\n

The latest visit to Weatherfield focuses entirely on Todd and Theo’s relationship and the unsettling incidents that have been taking place behind closed doors. Last week, George Shuttleworth and Christina Boyd were alerted to trouble<\/a> between the couple when Gary Windass heard a crash coming from their flat.<\/p>\n

In tonight’s episode, the action flashes back to key moments which have taken place between Todd and Theo in recent weeks. All of these are shown through the point of view of in-universe cameras, including Todd’s secret spycams<\/a>, CCTV, doorbell footage and police bodycams.<\/p>\n

When Theo’s abusive behaviour reaches frightening new heights, a row is overheard and someone calls the police to raise concerns over what’s going on.<\/p>\n

An arrest is ultimately made against one party and the neighbours become suspicious, but is Theo any closer to being brought to justice or will everyone get the wrong idea over who the aggressor is?<\/p>\n

Gareth Pierce, who plays Todd, recently previewed the unique format by telling us: “We were discovering how to play to that style of filming ‘on the job’, so it felt like an exciting collaborative adventure for all departments.<\/p>\n

“I think I anticipated it might feel like we were watching Corrie characters through a haze, a slight step further back from the action, but it actually has the opposite effect where it feels like it brings us closer, like we’re eavesdropping on our characters and seeing something we shouldn’t.<\/p>\n

“I haven’t seen the full episode yet, but the bits I have seen are very effective and disorientating.”<\/p>\n

James Cartwright, who plays Theo, added: “Domestic violence is real for a lot of people, it often escalates around Christmas, so there\u2019s a real level of respect on the set.<\/p>\n

“You’ve got to tread that line between drama, storytelling and authenticity. It will be very challenging to watch for anybody who’s been through it, or is going through something similar, but we also have to be careful not to rush it or you run the risk of doing a disservice to people who’ve been through it.”<\/p>\n

Coronation Street is working on Todd and Theo’s story with support from Galop, the LGBTQ+ anti-abuse charity. For more information and resources, visit the charity’s website<\/a> or contact the national helpline on 0800 999 5428.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
