Coronation Street's Todd Grimshaw will make a move on Marcus Dent in the New Year.

Todd (Bruno Langley) is encouraged to make a play for his new friend after he notices Marcus watching when he strips off to try on a new shirt at the Bistro.

Although the pair are interrupted before anything can happen between them, Marcus is soon left questioning what this means for his relationship with Maria Connor (Samia Ghadie).

Charlie Condou, who plays Marcus, told All About Soap: "Todd knows that stripping off in the Bistro has had an effect on Marcus. He follows Marcus outside and says to him that he did it for his benefit, then asks him if he liked what he saw. Todd's very flirtatious and really comes on to Marcus - and Marcus is clearly uncomfortable with it all.

"Todd leans in for a kiss, at which point Eileen interrupts them. It's hard to know if Marcus would have responded to the kiss or not."

He continued: "If there wasn't anything in it, he would have told Maria that Todd tried to kiss him. But he doesn't - and that's suspicious. He's unsure of how he's feeling and that's why he doesn't say."

What to Read Next

Condou recently announced that he will be leaving Coronation Street next year. He will bow out after Marcus's storyline with Todd and Maria comes to a head in the summer.
