The latest Coronation Street spoilers have suggested dangers for the Platts, and Jack P. Shepherd himself has confirmed this. For over two decades, Jack’s character, David, has seen many dangerous trials— but according to him, this one’s stakes are higher. Now that Gail Platt is nowhere around to shield the family, they are going through one of the darkest phases.
David’s Family At Risk
David’s troubles began when he made a reckless decision to steal money from the crime boss Harvey Gaskell. Though he initially thought he could outsmart him, things didn’t go as per the plan. Harvey hit back quickly and targeted his family including his little daughter, Lily. However, the tensions begin to peak when his wife, Shona Platt is kidnapped in broad daylight and there is no way he can contact her.
Not knowing what to do next, David goes to the police station and starts to sink into his own guilt. He soon realises that Harvey is targeting those who are closest to him. Next, he receives a chilling message from Lily where an extra £10,000 has been demanded, and even their family dog has been deliberately hurt.
Jack Comments On The Platts
The Platt family is in grave danger because not only Harvey but also the Radcliffe brothers are after David. Now that they are quite popular killers after stabbing Mason to death—David is quite sure that they can even take revenge on his loved ones. Right now, David is doing everything he can to protect his family and keep them safe from these intruders.
Jack shares his own thoughts on the storyline and hints at how dangerous things can soon become for the Platts. He said, “Knowing that no one is safe and they could come after his whole family, he’s panicked and desperate. He’s trying to think of ways to pay the money back, but it’s a huge lump sum to come up with, and he’s bricking it.” He further added that it’s not sure how David is going to come out of it—and it has left us speculating—is it a hint for another looming exit? Only the upcoming Coronation Street spoilers can reveal. Until then, stay tuned to Soap Opera Daily to learn what happens next.
