Dont know if its been reported yet but there was a small piece in the sun today that said "Corries first openly gay character todd grimshaw will return this summer"

Fingers crossed its true because i loved this character

Omg- If This Was True Then I Would Absoutley Love It!

Why Would It Be So Small Though- Surely It Would Be Quite Big News?

A quick Google and Twitter search finds nothing of latest news, so I'm taking this as a pinch of salt.

God I hope not, Sean is horrific! I'd love to see Todd return to the cobbles, he was one of the best characters from the Noughties IMO and a terrific actor. However, I'd take this with a pinch of salt until DS officially make a statement about this supposed return.

I SO hope this is true! Would love to see Todd back and it would expand Eileen's family circle even more meaning we should see more of Eileen! Win, win

If he came back, he would get together with James, Ken's grandson, and it would tie the families together in a brilliant way.

Can you imagine dinner with Deirdre and Eileen?

Around the time of his last return, he did say that he would consider coming back full time if asked but that was three years ago and nothing came of it. I would love to see him back. For one he was a great character and secondly, anything that meant more screentime for Eileen would be great.

Maybe they can bring Karl back as well and finally have them as a couple! lol

After all, they're both friends of Sean's!

think he's good friends with Phil Collinson so it may be true. He was in 2 eps of Doctor Who when it came back as Adam -the devious almost-companion.

It is in the sun tvbiz section. It's only about two lines long, under the sophie story. It's not on the online page though so who knows. Seems quite hidden away for a character like that.

That was his first ever job after Corrie in 2004. He got the job a few days after Todd was last seen on telly in the September.

I'm sure everyone expected that to open the floodgates to telly work but he never got any work at all until an episode of Dziel (however you spell it) and Pascoe about 3 years later!

I'd be surprised if he went back for more than a visit - like he did when Jason married Sarah - cos the reason he left was cos he didn't want to play a gay character. He didn't mind the whole 'turmoil pre-coming out' stuff, but once Todd was out and proud, that was when he left, abruptly, cos he didn't want to be a gay character on a regular basis.

I will always have a soft spot for Todd and Karl, though.
