Despite a rocky start, things seemed to be looking up for the pair on Coronation Street.
However, they seemed to hit somewhat of a bump in the road when Noah Hedley (Richard Winsor) appeared on the street in May of this year.
His homophobic ‘ex-gay’ character was seen to be practising conversion therapy, much to the protestations of Billy (Daniel Brocklebank) and Todd.
It turns out, he used to perform conversion therapy on Theo whilst he was married to Danielle (Natalie Anderson).
After Theo embarked on his relationship with Todd, he entered into his own romance with Danielle.
But in a shock twist, his last scenes will air tonight as his character is dramatically killed off.
On tonight’s edition of the long-running ITV soap, he was seen supporting Danielle in court as she fought Theo for custody of her kids.
Todd and Theo celebrated the victory in the bistro after he was given a shared order, meaning he would obtain access to his children.
However, Noah soon interrupts their date as he informs the duo that Danielle intends to appeal the judgement.
Spitting with anger, he exclaimed: “I’m not vindictive, I’m just concerned that people like you are allowed to live near kids.

“Twisting their little minds so they end up like you… disgusting perverts like you are allowed to do what they want.”
After Todd rose up in anger, Theo tried to diffuse the situation as he told his former friend: “You’re nothing to me, Noah.”
He added: “I know who I am and what I want. Okay? So you can’t get to me now,” before proceeding to give a shooing gesture.
The duo were still in the Bistro a while later with Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) and Dee-Dee Bailey (Channique Sterling-Brown).
Coronation Street’s 2024 shock exits
Corrie has said goodbye to several cast members this year. Let’s break down who’s left the famous soap:
Eliza Woodrow (Savannah Kunyo) has said farewell to Corrie to start a new life in Germany.
The youngster moved to live with her dad Dom Everett, who went back on the £10,000 bribe Eliza’s grandfather Stu had offered to keep him out of her life.
Paul Foreman (Peter Ash) will bow out of the soap this summer when he loses his fight with motor neurone disease (MND) in tragic scenes.
After being diagnosed last year, the fan favourite was devastated to learn he only had months left to live.
Viewers know he is planning to take his own life to end his suffering.
Summer Spellman (Harriet Bibby) departed the cobbles after being offered the opportunity of a lifetime to study in America.
Though she struggled to decide with her stepdad Paul’s impending death from MND, she was convinced she had to live her life to the full.
Simon Barlow (Alex Bain) has struggled with the sudden departure of his father Peter from the cobbles.
The Weatherfield legend left his family and loved ones behind on Boxing Day, 2023, when his wife Carla Connor encouraged him to travel around the world with a friend.
Simon’s been on a downward spiral ever since and his exit could end in tragedy.
Alya Nazir is set to leave the cobbles as actress Sair Khan prepares to go on maternity leave ahead of the birth of her first child.
It looks likely she’ll be heading to Dublin after securing a lucrative new job, leaving her colleague and fling Adam Barlow behind.
Show stalwart Sue Cleaver, who plays Eileen Grimshaw, is taking a break to star in the Sister Act The Musical UK tour. She will be back filming in May once her dates on the tour come to an end.
Her character left the Street after her son Jason broke his back after falling off a moped in Asia.
This is when Danielle then stormed into the restaurant as she announced that Noah had died.
She blamed both Todd and Theo for getting him ‘worked up’ after he was found in his front room after suffering a heart attack.
However, Dee-Dee later stated that they could not have caused it and he probably had an unknown health condition.
Later in the flat, Theo was left in tears as he told Todd that he would miss Noah in a strange way, before making Todd swear to stay together.
A twisted villain
This comes after The Sun first revealed that Richard Winsor was due to leave the serial drama.
At the time of first reporting, a show source explained: “Richard’s done a great job as Noah.
“He was brought in as a guest star for a specific storyline and he’s knocked it out of the park playing such a twisted villain.
“But the character will leave next week and it’s set to be explosive and spark fireworks on the cobbles.”
