In Coronation Street tonight (March 13), Theo managed to successfully ruin George’s reputation, but next week his focus will turn back to Todd.

It’s been a horrific storyline for viewers to watch, as Theo has been abusing Todd for quite some time. We all know just how dangerous Theo is, after he made sure Billy died in the Corriedale crash. But it appears the story is far from over.

After their break-up, Theo wanted to hurt those around Todd, and set out to ruin George. But Coronation Street spoilers for next week confirm sinister scenes are coming up.

George’s reputation was ruined in Coronation Street

Last night (March 12), Theo discovered James Bailey slept at the flat. And while Summer told him nothing happened with him and Todd, George explained that even if something did happen, Todd wouldn’t be in the wrong.

Theo didn’t like hearing that at all. And so when he discovered Adam Barlow having a chat with Annie – the woman accusing George of fraud, he was quick to get her alone. And when he got to speak to her, Theo made sure to completely ruin George’s image. 

Then tonight’s episode aired the fallout of that. All morning Todd had been taking calls from clients, trying to make them aware that it was all false reports in the news.

However, the damage had been done and numerous news and social media reports were slamming George’s work. And when Maggie Driscoll found out, realising the media image used was of George in the pub, she was furious.

She demanded that he doesn’t come back, as he would take their reputation down with him. George tried to plead his innocence, but it was clear his reputation is in tatters.

Later in Coronation Street, Theo used his tracker to find Todd at Speed Daal, and when they spoke, he offered his sympathy for what’s happened. However, he then turned vicious and started showing Todd images of men from the dating website he’s on, leaving Todd uncomfortable.

Glenda later encourages Todd to get back in the dating world and so, he tells Theo that both of them should move on. This prompts Theo to flirt with Sean to get a reaction. But when Todd mentions Glenda has set him up on a date, Theo is rattled.

Todd heads off to meet his date, while Theo joins Gary’s birthday celebrations. But he then tells Todd that he’s considering taking a job in Belfast.
