#cracking open this playlist is my new after-work unwind #pissing myself at summer bleaching amys hair with loo cleaner under todd's non supervision #they may both have new faces but some things never change <3 #I can't think about kate and rana for too long or i'll weep #SEEING PHELAN TOO if i see andy once in this playlist it's over #nostalgic for an era i didn't even watch live #also realising the part of my brain that loves todd grimshaw is the same that loves saul goodman and stan pines. crooks with big hearts <3

HELLOOOOOOO BEAUTIFUL

#corrie #todd grimshaw #THIS IS GORGEOUS??? ENLIGHTENED IDEA??? I NEED TO KNOW EVERYTHING #hellooooo lighting and shading #helloooooo metal man

the generational fumble of these storylines as they reach their climax wouldn't bother me as much if they just owned the fact that they're campy dramatic soaps and at the end of the day they're gonna do campy dramatic soap things. the whole "working with organizations" and "spreading awareness" narrative falls flat and comes off at best lacking self awareness and at worst sleazy when they clearly cba to put any afterthought into the aftermath of these 'standout' stories

#im looking at both of you farm n cobbles

im still so pissed about the direction of this sl ignore the fact that its not on beat

#👹👹👹👹👹#YOU ARE SO QUICK WITH IT #And perfect as always #i cannot believe my parents got divorced today #i can't dealllll #IMMACULATE song choice

MONDAY SPOILERS (kinda)

please god never separate these two again they are so unintentionally funny to me. Siblings in Situations. Came for the free scran ended up in a nightmare episode of come dine with me. Their 👀. The fact that in every clip todd looks horrified where summer is practically cracking out the popcorn. absolute scenes

#im laughing now because i know im going to have a terrible time on monday <3

they can arrest and charge summer for a brooch (mind you george, who towered over theo, also had theo's blood on his sleeve and also went for a walk that night) but a lacerated spleen, a previous assault charge (remember? the one known enough that todd and billy found it in the news?) and plenty of people to corroborate the fact theo was abusive wasn't enough to keep him locked up

#tearing my hair out #the generational fumble of this storyline has aged me 10 years #and we still have over a fucking MONTH TO GO

all gripes considered i think evil roy seeping poison in sam's ears fight club style is the funniest thing corrie has done all year and it's not even intentional

#david neilson is a treasure #i hate this show man

reached the terminal stage of the fixation where the source media has disappointed me too many times (tho those danielle scenes were absolutely perfect. no notes) and my brains scrambling for the most insane threads to keep me attached (lesbifying todd grimshaw in my head)

#CALL ME CRAZY #like a smart-talking suit wearing puppy dog eyed sapphic wouldn't cause shockwaves through canal street #listen if the robroners get to do it so can i #swarla wedding has sent me on a mad one i need 15 more lesbians on that street i need kate and rana back #sally metcalfe would agree with me i know she would #plus. all my love to paul but if i came home to see the love of my life all MILFed up #i'd also orchestrate looney tunes antics to get her back i'm so sorry #this post will probably not stay up i am just saying Things

i'm sure if not the ironic falling from his own scaffolding there'll have been some contrapasso thematic death given to theo but let's think about the fact that after all the training all the digs about his health todd was able to outrun theo in the end

#that man is made of steel btw #how he managed to leg it not even what. a week? two weeks? after a brutal attack. A LACERATED SPLEEN. CARRYING ALL OF HIS BELONGINGS #soap logic 💯#same guy who got hit by a car left to rot and was out the next second harassing david and shona ig

*spoilers* *but barely*

honestly it's the fact that in all of these built up intense dramatic showdowns the only moment that took me by surprise and made me yell was jodie sparking ar sarah lou clean out

#jodie i was warming to you #but you cannot come for my babygirl like that #i actually have nothing to say right now that isn't already being thought or articulated better #a year and a half. and here we are #lol i guess

i am not immune to propaganda. i was not at all excited for the whodunnit. i've been the cynic i've been ranting about the pacing issues in trying to force all of these storylines to intertwine at once AND ALL ITV HAD TO DO was click their fingers and make me wait until 8:30 instead of 7am and i'm pavlov'd. i'm weak i'm buzzing i'm eating fan theories like a packet of space raiders. i'll see you guys at 9

TW BLOOD. TW DV

in the back of my mind todd still wonders if he did actually change or if he was just managing to trick all of his loved ones into liking him again considering how 'easy' to was to slip back into angry defensiveness [both physically and verbally]. or at least thats how i write him when im writing my fic.

obviously easy is in air quotes because he was literally and metaphorically backed into a corner for all of those times

so i present an edit about that to noah kahans 'dashboard' [also ikkk the spelling mistake but its okay]

#OBSESSED WITH THE WAY YOU'VE CLIMBED INTO HIS BRAIN HERE #ive said it a million times but it's so interesting viewing all of this with his reformation in mind #constantly re-evaluating his actions not only by theo's impossible standards but by the standards he's worked hard to set for himself #and feeling like a disappointment or that he's slipping back into old habits #todd fic/edit nation i salute you 🫡 thank you for rendering visible what's between the lines

*discussion of spoilers*

i've really struggled to find the words to articulate this properly and sensitively, and thus i'd really love to hear others' thoughts on this

but i'm really hoping the discussion with danielle addresses, or at least paves the way to addressing a fear i've had with the recent direction of the story - that being the understating of the psychological abuse/ritual humiliation aspects. obviously recently it's been very much centred on theo's physical violence, and justifiably so!! it's utterly harrowing, despicable, and it was that final outburst that made the abuse visual and signalled it to the others, and i'd like to think that the reason the other elements haven't been brought to the surface as much yet is because todd himself is keeping those parts caged through shame - not because he has anything to be ashamed of, but because that's exactly how this sort of unseen manipulation and treatment ravages you

and it's not that the story has signalled at all that it would forget these components - that poignant moment with george expressing that they all picked up on theo's coercive control without any inclination that it was physical ("no one said he was battering you") makes that very clear - i think i'm possibly just getting apprehensive about the direction they're taking this given the whodunnit plot and the tendency for sensationalism currently?

for me personally the psychological warfare, the control of diet, socialization, behaviour, sticks out to me as particularly well done in this storyline, it resonates, and i'd just hate to see it go unaddressed both for the messaging and due diligence given to survivors, and for the character. todd was never particularly handy in a physical fight, but what he had was his wit, his self assurance - and all of that was stripped away in horrific measures before us

and it's the dealing with the perhaps more ambiguous - the enforced lifestyle changes, the internalised degradation, the personal attacks masked as humour - that i'd personally like to see. both as a fan of the character, and as someone healing

*spoilers* another fine mess

been inconsolable about these two all damn day. ALL DAMN DAY

#SPOILERS IN TAGS #corrie #todd grimshaw #george shuttleworth #i can't stop thinking about them #do you think george knew when he was arranging a fake funeral for his girlfriend's asshole son #that one day he'd be swinging for a violent criminal to protect him #and do you think todd knew that he'd be lunging for said violent criminal to defend his annoying boss #when is he signing the adoption papers #did anyone see tony accidentally shove his arm into gareth when they were pointing to the flat 😭😭#made me giggle #SUMMER AND GARY TOO between the two pairings i need at least 4 hours meditation

Coronation Street | Summer Spellman + Todd Grimshaw (12th April 2026)

#Corrie #Summer Spellman #Todd Grimshaw #this has to be one of my favourite scenes of the storyline so far #so subtle but it knocked me for six #these two are absolute diamonds

number 11 tomorrow. number 11 at 7am guys. you don't understand how much i've missed eileen's tacky live laugh love magical wonder emporium i can't even brace myself for the misery when i'm gonna see the gang back together in the home that houses the hundreds

#it just has a certain je ne sais quoi #after the dissolution of the platt house this is all i have left #i absolutely love how this storyline gives way for comedic characters to tread into tragedy #not just todd. george mary glenda #there was always something so naturalistic and heartwarming about that house despite the stupidity and chaos to me #so ready for the comeback #corrie
