New thread.

I wondered about Theo’s wife too.
The killer presumably will be someone who is definitely scheduled to leave the programme so those judged to still have
‘mileage’ in them, storylines-wise, will be spared.

I thought Summer yesterday had a slightly shifty look, but then that was probably deliberate to keep us guessing which character hated Theo the most.
It’s a long list!

Tosh! Absolute tosh. How Todd could say he wanted that monster back again is ridiculous. Hope Carl killed him as they had some fight and Ronnie just found him. That way the two of them got what they deserved.

Aveline Tue 05-May-26 11:21:05

Poor Todd will have been so thoughly manipulated by the awful Theo that he's bound to feel a bit mixed up.

JenniferEccles Tue 05-May-26 11:28:10

I think Todd’s reaction is really hard to understand for those of us fortunate enough not to have ever been in a controlling, violent relationship, but I have read that the storyline writers had a lot of input from various charities which help victims, so perhaps his reaction is more common than we think.

Agreed

sodapop Tue 05-May-26 15:45:02

I agree too that poor Todd was so thoroughly manipulated and coerced by Theo he can't envisage a life without him. It is so hard for anyone who has not experienced this type of control to understand how much it impacts on your life.

nanaK54 Wed 06-May-26 11:46:19

Oh no, poor George, he didn't, he wouldn't surely.

Why was bloomin' Christina carrying his blood stained jumper about, just shove it in the washing machine you daft bat.

My money is on Gary although I rather hope it is Danielle.

Really don't like Will's mum.

Where is Jodie, not that I care really grin

Charleygirl5 Wed 06-May-26 18:58:34

U think either Summer or Michelle his ex wife killed Theo.

I agree Christina was so stupid waving the bloody top around. The writers are getting worse.

I am amazed Carl is not up and about and in the pub. It normally takes 48 hours to recover from major surgery post surgery on Corrie.

Aveline Thu 07-May-26 07:18:57

Poor old Summer is in the frame for me. Mind you that blood stained 'brooch' is a bit odd. Looks more like a patch and nothing I've ever seen her wearing.
Idea: maybe it was Megan?! That would tie up two stories neatly. Where actually is she btw?

nanaK54 Thu 07-May-26 08:24:41

Yes where is Megan and what was the 'new evidence' that came to light.

Will someone please buy Will a new school jumper his current one is far too small for him grin

Primrose53 Thu 07-May-26 08:35:44

Ben’s ex wife looks nothing like her mixed race “sons”. She looks more like Somalian heritage. I like the way she is standing up to Grandma though.

I reckon the brooch belongs to Theo’s ex wife. It is a modern type of brooch.

So GCSEs start on Monday (some have already started) and Will's mother wants to take him to Scotland for a week!!
As if they don't matter at all and they can just get a letter from the doctor...apparently
Unbelievable lack of respect for education there Corrie writers!!

The writers aren't great on details like that. I'm always surprised when the police are discussing confidential matters in the Rovers or when Roy's Rolls is understaffed they drag the nearest person behind the counter to start work. No hand washing or qualifications in food & hygiene necessary it seems.

Primrose53 Thu 07-May-26 10:13:50

Sarnia the solicitors do likewise. It makes me laugh to see them discussing clients cases in the pub or Speed Dahl.

Charleygirl5 Thu 07-May-26 13:38:04

You would rarely be out of work on Corrie, Anybody can walk in off the street and start to work there. I wouldn't know how a till worked, but they all do. Also, making coffee etc.

Clawdy Fri 08-May-26 08:46:15

Maybe it is Danielle. They obviously want a real twist. Could be anyone, however improbable.

Grannynannywanny Fri 08-May-26 10:00:19

How about Theo’s son? They were at loggerheads when Theo left his wife to live with Todd. I think the murderer will be someone on the periphery rather than one of the main characters.

EllieAnne Fri 08-May-26 14:14:04

And who was in Sally’s photo?

nanaK54 Fri 08-May-26 14:42:39

EllieAnne

And who was in Sally’s photo?

I think it was Gary.

I really don't want Gary to be the 'murderer'.

Aveline Fri 08-May-26 14:45:52

It certainly looked like Gary. Of course he's murdered before and got away with it.

Charleygirl5 Fri 08-May-26 14:46:53

I hope the storyline of Theo's death doesn't go on for months or even weeks, boring us all to death.

Happygirl79 Fri 08-May-26 15:12:15

FindingNemo15

When David and Sarah walked into the Platt's why didn't they switch on the lights?

Exactly

Happygirl79 Fri 08-May-26 15:17:18

I dearly hope that we are not going to suffer weeks of this parade of every person on Coronation Street being taken to the police station for questioning by Carla's new wife. She couldn't detect her way out of a paper bag, that one!

Grannynannywanny Fri 08-May-26 15:22:56

I’m sick of the sight of Jodie skulking around. I wish the gangsters would come back for her.

I was going to say drop her back on the outskirts of Emmerdale where we first saw her months ago. But I like Emmerdale and I don’t want her spoiling that programme for me.

sodapop Fri 08-May-26 15:42:54

Jodie is really getting on my nerves too Grannynannywanny but definitely don't want her in Emmerdale. I'm sure all the secrecy around her is going to be an anticlimax.
