Todd hasn't had a storyline in ages, and the vast majority of his scenes are with Tracy in the Pawnborkers/florist.

He needs to be taken out of the florist. Maybe he could set up as some kind of legal advisor or something.

Revisit what "happened" in London.

Perhaps a love interest (or are TPTB worried there will be too many gay relationships?)


At the moment every scene he's in he's making comments about Tracy's love life and getting yet another bouquet wrong.

I'm hoping Kate Oates has the imagination to come up with the story about what happened in London to turn him from a decent caring soul when he left Weatherfield into a psychotic, whingeing, nasty pr*t when he returned!!
He needs another story of him being horrendous to somebody before breaking down, maybe with someone like Sarah or Jason before he leaves (please NOT Tracy) & spilling his guts about what happened to make him like that!!
Bruno Langley is a good actor & these would make good & poignant scenes if handled properly!!
Otherwise I can't see the point in bringing him back in yhe first place!!

I can go along with that if he kills Tracy, Anna, Fiz, Tyrone and then commits suicide himself.

Or, how about a real shocker. Say he doesn't have an inappropriate love affair, or embark on an evil revenge scheme, or spend his life as a gay agony uncle... but trains to be some kind of professional?
With his talents, the law suggests itself.

He is my fave character and one of the bets actors on the show so i hope he gets something soon.
I still want him and Billy to get together.

I think they should keep Todd as he as now being Tracey's little sidekick and partner in crime. I actually find them naturally funny and couldn't honestly say that about many other couples or friends on the street at all as it is now.

Todd is a really good foil for Tracey's frantic little mindgames, they think each other's thoughts so well. Leave them alone please for pity's sake, there's so little else that's got an appealing consistency in this show.

They will eventually morph into a more evil Rita and Norris at some stage.

Would that not be like him reliving the past? Has he not been there already?

I kind of like the interaction between him and Tracy but I think he does need something other than that in his personal relationships otherwise they could just become as someone said an evil version of Rita & Norris. He needs a love interest and that should not include Sean or Billy they can both go for me both are dull. I'd like to see him link up with Zidane who within a matter of weeks seems to becoming a chef par excellence, and to think people train for years for such things. I'd love to see him and Zidane take over the bistro together as a couple. Give Nick the sack from the street send him scuttling after Carla when she leaves and let Todd and Zidane buy it and make it theirs.

I wonder why people are determined that either Zeedan or Aidan should be gay, despite being interested in women.

I agree, that would be best coupling since Todd got together with Karl the male nurse..

The only advantage of him getting together with Billy would be if Sean became so grief stricken that he topped himself.

Having Todd get with Billy would only destroy his relationships with Eileen and Jason again and I don't want to see that happen. It would be funny though if Aiden got with Sarah and then started sleeping with Todd behind her back, it'd be like history repeating itself

I agree with this, I don't like Tracyluv but I like her relationship with Todd. He brings out a side to her that no-one else can, and he's very astute when it comes to her dodgy dealings and complicated love life.
I also like the concern he shows for Sarah and Bethany, I'd like to see him being there for Sarah as she is pregnant, as a friend of course.
I do think he needs some development, he's criminally under-used at the moment. Not necessarily a relationship with anyone, just something that looks at why he changed so much in London.

He's hanging on grimly for Kate Oates

Why would he do this florist thing. Its a straight womans fantasy of what a gay guy would do...
