David Platt (Jack P Shepherd)

"I think what Kate has done is that she's given more people an opportunity," he explained at the time. "There's a lot more storylines in the mix. Usually there's just three storylines running at any one time – the main one, the middle one and the lower one, but she's included a fourth one.

"So when we go to six episodes per week later this year, we'll be able to manage it because we've got more storylines and a great cast. In previous times it's been the same faces doing storylines, so it's nice to give everyone a turn and I think that's what she's done."

That's excellent news as Jack Shepherd is one of the real stars of Corrie.

But if what he says is true about spreading the load with more storylines for different actors, why is Michelle still at the centre of everything!?

Because for some reason, production like her and on social media she is popular too and apparently liked for her acting ... guess her writing a column in a magazine keeps her pushing herself into the forefront too ...hopefully after the cancer storyline with Robert things will quieten down for her again .. please.....

Her qcting was good when she lost her baby . I will give her that much. When Carla comes it will remove some focus hopefully

That is the only time I could admire her .. but especially since then she seems to have taken on the role of the crying, wailing hard done by female ... which a lot of the time is down to her own doing ...and done badly and over-acted

Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd looks very different as he films a mysterious new storyline involving his character David Platt.

Jack can be seen with a beard and slightly longer hair in these brand new pap pictures that appear to show David creeping around in the dead of the night.

The sneaky shots show David looking serious as he watches a property from afar in his car, before eventually approaching the front door.

It's not entirely clear who David is keeping watch on, but the latest story twist comes after he entered into an official relationship with Shona Ramsay – despite the small matter of her being the mother of the teenage thug who killed his wife Kylie.

Corrie's explosive autumn trailer recently teased that David's latest romance could land him in big trouble when Shona's manipulative ex Dane Hibbs arrives back on the scene after learning about her scratchcard win.

Shona has secretly put her £6,000 winnings into a savings account for her killer son Clayton after his prison release – but a dangerous Dane will take shock action in a bid to get his hands on the money.

The recent promo showed Dane driving off in a car with David's young children Max and Lily – but is Dane the person David is tracking down in these pictures? Or could there be another twist we don't know about yet?

yes killed off in whodidit probably

It could have something to do with Phelan, he does have a red van like that.

If Andy gets to make contact with some residents, David would probably be top of his list if he wants to bring Phelan down. He cares about Michael because of Gail (and maybe also because Kylie brought him back into their lives) and isn't averse to the odd revenge plot.

David goes to follow Gary and Nicola whom Pat Phelan is also following

Anyone else see the rumours of David cheating on Shona with Maria?
