Coronation Street viewers are convinced abusive Theo is about to be murdered in Weatherfield
Coronation Street villain Theo Silverton is headed for a deadly end, claim fans after spotting a clue.
Since Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) began dating Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) earlier this year on the ITV soap, viewers have witnessed Todd be reduced to a shell of a man.
Over the past few months, Theo has successfully managed to break Todd down with violence, manipulation, and control tactics. Todd has turned into a nervous wreck who has yet to open up to anyone about his harrowing abuse at the hands of his boyfriend, Theo.
However, on Tuesday (December 30), it appears that one Weatherfield resident has noticed a change in Todd’s behaviour as his bubbly personality is slipping away.
Recent Coronation Street scenes saw Theo learn about a number of Todd’s crushes, from famous actor Andrew Scott to local businessman Nick Tilsley (Ben Price).
Furious that Todd had dared engage in a conversation with his childhood crush, Theo dragged him away to pick up a birthday cake for George Shuttleworth (Tony Maudsley).
Outside the cake shop, Theo laid into Todd for flirting with Nick and making a laughing stock of their relationship.
Todd was quick to defend himself, pointing out that he had no feelings for Nick and that their conversation was totally innocent, but Theo refused to hear it.

In a cruel move, he forced Todd to walk home across Manchester while he drove the cake back to the party.
When Theo returned to the party alone, making a big spectacle about the fact that he had been the saviour of the day by retrieving the cake, Billy Mayhew (Daniel Brocklebank) was quick to note Todd’s absence.
When Billy found Todd’s jacket and phone, he set off to deliver them to him, only to be stopped by Theo, who insisted that Todd would be asleep by now.
Later, Billy bumped into Todd who was left freezing cold and wet from the rain following his trek across town.
Though Todd tried to make excuses for why he had been out without a coat or his phone, Billy didn’t believe him, and was certain that Theo had something to do with the situation as he explained that he knew he hadn’t drunk as much as Theo had made out.
In a bid to help Todd see that he was willing to support him, Billy gave him a key to his flat, should he need somewhere to stay. Todd rejected Billy’s support and continued his journey home.
However, Corrie viewers are convinced that Billy has realised that Todd is being abused, and he will kill Theo, which will land the vicar in prison.
Daniel made his debut in the ITV soap towards the end of 2014 in the role of reformed vicar Billy Mayhew, and in that time, he has seen his fair share of drama on the cobbles.
But Billy’s time in Weatherfield is coming to an end, as Daniel confirmed he’d be bowing out of the role after 11 years. Taking to x, one person wrote: “Billy is going to chin Theo. #corrie.”
A second stated: “I think Billy will kill Theo, then he will get life in prison, that’s how he goes out of Corrie.”
On Facebook, one viewer chimed in: “I think Billy dies in Corriedale, but not sure”, as another interjected: “Other way around…..Billy will do Theo.”
“Billy knows something ain’t right with Todd, I reckon he ends up killing Theo”, added another.
Coronation Street airs Monday, Wednesday and Friday on ITV and ITVX
