Coronation Street is about to put Todd Grimshaw through one of his bleakest weeks yet, as his private nightmare spirals into full view. Stranded with no money, no independence, and no immediate way out, Todd’s carefully hidden struggle edges closer to exposure, especially when Sarah Platt starts asking questions he can’t answer.
Todd Is Left Penniless And Completely Isolated
Coronation Street spoilers reveal that Todd Grimshaw is left in a devastating position after Theo Silverton heads off to Doncaster to visit his mum. Theo insists it’s only a day trip, but his departure leaves Todd scraping by with just £10 in cash.
The reality is far more disturbing than it first appears. Todd has already destroyed his bank cards to keep Theo satisfied, making himself totally dependent on him.
An insider explains that Todd is now “completely and utterly reliant,” adding that it’s heartbreaking to watch him stare at the single note that represents all the money he has left. Trying to distract himself, Todd spends time with George Shuttleworth at the café.
However, the outing takes a disastrous turn when George realises he’s forgotten his wallet and asks Todd to cover the bill. Feeling trapped, Todd gives up his only tenner, knowing he has no backup.
The Pressure Builds As Todd’s Secret Starts To Crack
Unaware of the damage done, George casually invites Todd for a pint at The Rovers, but Todd is forced to turn him down.
A Corrie insider notes that George has “no idea that £10 is all Todd has until Theo gets back”. Things take another cruel turn when Todd later receives a message from Theo. Todd’s heart sinks as he realises he’s been left alone with no money and no immediate help.
Meanwhile, Sarah Platt unknowingly pokes at a wound that’s already raw. She reminds Todd that he owes Harry Platt a tenner for completing his sponsored walk. Todd snaps back sharply, and Sarah is left confused by his sudden edge. Later in the week, Summer Spellman makes a worrying discovery when she notices Todd’s fridge is completely empty. Concerned, she offers to do some food shopping for him. Todd accepts her kindness. But behind the scenes, he secretly contacts Theo to admit that he’s run out of money.
Viewers already know the truth behind Todd’s desperation. But the question is whether Sarah will finally push him to explain why money has become such a sensitive subject. As Todd continues to hide his torment, the risk grows that his devastating situation will soon be exposed. Stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily for more Coronation Street spoilers.
