Coronation Street fans reckon the soap is going to kill off a legend and they are not happy.

Over on the soap this year, Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) made his debut, and quickly struck up a romance with Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce). However, it later came out that Theo was married to Danielle (Natalie Anderson) and the pair had two kids.

What’s more, in a sad turn of events, Theo confided in Todd that he had lived a life in the closet, and revealed he was forced to undergo conversion therapy when he was younger.

The truth about Theo and Todd eventually came out after Danielle caught them passionately kissing. Since then, Theo and Todd have continued their relationship – but it’s not exactly been plain sailing for the pair.

Theo’s teen daughter Millie faked a pregnancy, thinking it would bring her dad back to the family home, and Todd ended up assaulting dodgy Noah (Richard Winsor) previously practiced conversion therapy on him.

In Wednesday’s episode (July 30) Todd attended a restorative justice session in a bid to avoid getting sent to jail. While there, he found out that preacher Noah is dating Danielle.

Later on, as Theo, Danielle and their kids came together for a meal at the Bistro, Todd arrived and told Theo about Noah and Danielle. A violent altercation then took place, and Theo accidentally hit his son, Miles (Lewis William Magee).

Fuming, Danielle then banned Theo from seeing his kids. The news didn’t go down well with Theo, who at the end of the episode, showed his serious dark side to Todd, and viewers.

Fans have predicted Todd’s murder

Despite Todd wanting to communicate with Theo and talk things out, Theo shut him down and blamed him for what happened, before demanding that he sleep downstairs. He then issued a chilling threat that if he didn’t, Todd would never see him again.

Now, following Todd’s scary behaviour, fans reckon he could end up killing Todd, in a devastating twist. On a Coronation Street Facebook fan page, one person penned: “Theo is horrible! Todd needs to kick him out.”

Someone else chimed in: “I have a feeling he might kill Todd.” A third then wrote: “Horrible man can’t stand him, and if he does that to Todd I’ll hate him even more.” Another penned: “I said the same as well, or some sort of abuse maybe.”
