Love, lies, and unexpected chemistry are the focus next week in Coronation Street as things are heating up with a steamy massage until an awkward interruption brings everything crashing back to reality.
It all begins innocently enough as George Shuttleworth (Tony Maudsley) calls round and stumbles across Theo Silverton (James Cartwright) and Todd Grimshaw (Gareth Pierce) mid-plank challenge.
The pair are playful, but the mood quickly switches when Todd casually mentions that James Bailey (Jason Callender) recently popped round.
Theo’s frosty reaction doesn’t go unnoticed as George picks up on the shift in a mood and starts to wonder whether there’s more going on beneath the surface than Theo or Todd is letting on.
Later, after a run together, Todd and Theo cool down with what begins as a friendly massage, but things soon start intensifying as the moment turns unexpectedly intimate.
Things become passionate, and the pair get lost in the heat of the moment, but suddenly they’re interrupted once again by none other than George, whose sudden arrival puts a halt to the blossoming romance.
Things have been far from smooth sailing lately for the pair, with Theo struggling with his past and worried about distancing himself from his children.
Theo’s daughter Millie has also not made things easy by injecting herself into the pair’s relationship with the goal of getting her dad to come home.
Will Todd and Theo pick up where they left off before George interrupted them?
