Ok - we now know that Chris and Bruno are leaving Corrie. Chris (Karl) has filmed his final scenes - which will be broadcast in the first week of June. Bruno (Todd) will depart later this year.

How do you think both characters will leave the soap? Run off together? Dead? Go their separate ways? Lets have your thoughts and theories please!

Well....

Spoiler


As for Todd though, I'm not sure, although it has been rumoured that....

Spoiler


A lot of people want him to go to Oxford uni like he was originally going to do before he decided to stay with Sarah though.

I want him to leave happy in himself and knowing who and what he is

Yes, I suppose Oxford is a possibility for Todd especially if he leaves around the start of term time (Sept/Oct).

Well I am not sure Todd going to Oxford would keep with what he has been saying for a few weeks now about not abandoning his baby. Even when Eileen was telling him to leave Sarah and be true to himself, he kept saying nothing would stop him from being there for the baby. The only way I think he would go is if Sarah just totally wanted nothing to do with him and shut him out altogether, leaving him with nothing to stay for.

There has also been a lot of gossip about the Platts taking revenge on Todd and maybe Karl. What could this entail?

Whatever happens - Karl only has 28 days left in Corrie..and counting....ooohhh! How will it all end?

However, as he is leaving, clearly he won't be having anything to do with the baby - assuming the Grim Reaper doesn't deal with the baby.

I think that Karl and Todd will be taunted by the locals. Karl will want to leave, but Todd says he's not going to be driven away that easily. So Karl will leave Todd with only his mother (and possibly brother) for protection. But then in autumn Karl will return and will attepmt to win Todd back. This time Todd's more willing to leave, and the two lovers will drive off into the sunset together...

Not sure if this has been mentioned but I saw the actor who plays Karl on GMTV on Wednesday this week and he said he had filmed his final bit last Friday - so Karl does leave.

Sorry - just realised this HAS been mentioned before - I've not been well!!

Don't know about Karl, but today's Sun may give you some ideas as to what the Platts' revenge on Todd entails

In the paper today there are pictures of the funeral of Sarah and Todd's baby boy. Apparently from the time the baby is born (its a boy and they call him Billy) it is unlikely that it will survive and it dies when its only a few days old. Todd still hasn't told Sarah at this stage that he is gay and it isn't known if this will be the way he gets out of his relationship with her or not as he feels that this is the time she needs him most. Apparently these scenes are due to be shown in the first week in June.

To avoid any misunderstandings, I think the current spoilers say that Todd comes out to Sarah on Sunday 23rd May or at latest in the first episode on Monday 24th May - the rest of Monday will be devoted to Sarah's reaction, Gail's reaction & if I'm not mistaken, to Eileen and Gail's fight on the street

I didn't realise Karl was going and I am surprised at how soon it is going to happen. When it was announced Todd was going to go, I did think they might leave together . I hope they wind this storyline up properly though as things seem to hang a bit in Corrie at the moment.

As long as they both decide to sod off then I don't really care how they get rid of them. Sarah might then be able to find the happiness that she so deserves. I also think that there is a complete lack of chemistry between the two actors. In my opinion Bruno Langley always seems to look uncomfortable and he starts to blush with what looks like embarrassment every time he acts in a scene with Chris. It makes me cringe while i'm watching him. If the people at Corrie decide to carry on with the gay storylines after Bruno and Chris have left, I hope that they decide to bring in more experienced actors to play the parts.

I suspect Karl will feel remorseful about Sarah losing the baby and feel the best thing to do is leave. It'll be obvious he has no friends left after Martin beats him up too.

It's a guessing game as to how Todd leaves, but it's most likely he falls in love with someone new and makes a fresh start, perhaps before making amends with Sarah? Or maybe he does decide to concentrate on his education and make a success of his life?

It would be unusual for a soap character to actually go to university... and away from home as well!! Blimey!

I reckon Karl will be back in time for Todd's exit.

The link to the picture of Todd at Billy's funeral was on around page 495-500 on the other(enormous) thread about T&K. It was in TheSunOnline on Friday 14th.

Either:

a) they leave snogging in the back of a cab for a new life together in Barcelona or somewhere, not knowing that Sarah can see them leaving together and kissing

b) their romance is short-lived. Karl cheats on Todd and Todd throws him out. Karl's last scene is that Katy has heard from someone at work that Karl is leaving. She races to the station and they hug. Karl tells Katy that she was a good friend and he'll miss her. He gets onto a train and the last we see of him is him waving to Katy from the train. Then, Todd meets some new guy and they move away together
