Todd returning to Coronation Street full-time?

No, your eyes are not deceiving you. And no, it’s not a belated (or indeed, very early!) April Fool’s joke, either. It seems that our favorite Weatherfield gay, Todd Grimshaw, may very well be uprooting sticks and moving back to Coronation Street. For good.

A recent poll in British magazine Inside Soap, which asked readers whether they would like to see Todd come back to the soap full time, attracted a whopping 82% of votes in favor of his return. Furthermore, according to the magazine's latest issue (3-9 November), so popular and well received has Todd’s soap comeback been, that the soap's producers are currently in talks with actor Bruno Langley about bringing his character back to Coronation Street full time as of next year.

This follows a recent article in the British Daily Star newspaper, about Bruno’s on screen brother, Ryan Thomas’s plans to launch a behind the scenes petition to bring him back to the show, once his 13 episode stint concludes. It seems that Bruno's popularity doesn't end there. One of the show’s producers, Kieran Roberts, is also keen to bring him back to the show permanently.

Bruno Langley has stated in numerous recent press interviews that he would be open to reprising his role. So, let's keep our fingers crossed it’s on a more permanent basis!
