Coronation Street's Todd to find romance with Sean?

Coronation Street's Todd Grimshaw could be set for a romance with barman Sean Tully.

Actor Bruno Langley, who left Coronation Street in 2004, is returning to the soap as Eileen's (Sue Cleaver) oldest son Todd and Antony Cotton (Sean) has hinted on Twitter they will be working closely together.

Antony posted several pictures of Bruno back on the Coronation Street set and said: "Me and the other gay one @brunolangley. See how much he loves me?

"First day with return of @BrunoLangley done. So nice to have him back. Roll on a great new Grimshaw/Tully era #Todd."

Bruno replied: "Thanks for a really cool first day fool."

It was announced earlier this year that Bruno would be returning to the cobbles.

During his time on the street, Todd got teenage girlfriend Sarah-Louise Platt (Tina O'Brien) pregnant, realised he was gay, buried his premature son and left for London after finding his brother Jason (Ryan Thomas) in bed with Sarah.

Coronation Street Producer Stuart Blackburn said: "Todd is a much-loved character who has a real history in the show, but his return will leave Eileen with some impossible choices."
