David has become predictable I am never surprised by his behaviour- no element of surprise anymore they have over used this menancing little boy!
Jack P Shepherd says don't be fooled by David's new girl... it's still Tina he loves and it'll all kick off again at Christmas!
David gatecrashes Tina’s party with a new girlfriend. What’s he up to?
"He’s in the kebab shop when he hears Tina and Jason are having a party and he’s not invited. He decides to gatecrash to wind Tina up and thinks it’ll be more effective if he goes with a girl."
So where does he find Zoe?
"He washes her hair in the salon. They get chatting and he invites her to the party."
Does David actually fancy her?
"She’s a pretty girl and he does fancy her. She’s blonde which makes a change."
But he’s doing it to make Tina jealous?
"Absolutely. It’s a new tactic… But Tina doesn’t take any notice of him."
Does he try other ways to wind her up?
"He’s tried being a pest and it didn’t work so he’s going to cool it and play a different game."
But he still wants Tina back?
"Definitely. She was his first love and he can’t get over her."
So how’s he going to do it?
"He’s going to sit back for a while. Later it does look as if Tina’s a bit jealous when she sees David with Zoe in The Rovers. She makes a big fuss and says to Jason ‘Look at them, all over each other.’ Jason even says to her ‘But I thought you were over him.’"
Will David and Zoe be an item?
"I have no idea, but I’d like David to have a new girlfriend. I’ve worked a lot with Michelle Keegan, who plays Tina, and it would be interesting to spread my wings and work with different characters."
Can David ever have a successful relationship?
"It would be difficult. David has an obsessive personality so as soon as he really starts to like someone he tries to control them."
Didn’t he learn a lesson from getting beaten up?
"He learnt to let bygones be bygones as far as Gary Windass is concerned!"
What’s in store for David?
"He’s going to be spending a lot of time with Joe, working on his boat, and he’s going to be building bridges with his family."
What about evil David?
"Don’t worry. He’ll be back. Things will start to happen around about Christmas time!"

Tearaway David Platt will be charged with trying to MURDER a love rival.
When Corrie cops arrest David (Jack Shepherd) for mowing down Graeme (Craig Gazey) they warn he'll rot in jail if his victim dies.
A source said: "Viewers will think he's really done it this time - and he could be on his way out of the soap."
I hope Craig Gazey is not leaving, he is so funny, so please don't let him die. As for Jack Shepherd (David Platt), let him rot in jail.
So the story of him raping or attacking Tina has been dumped, for a hit and run on Graeme

This is very true. However, talking of releasing murderers early, whatever happened to the supposed early release of Tracy Barlow?Quote:

David - who does not know he has epilepsy - leaves Graeme fighting for life after blacking out at the wheel.
And the trainee hairdresser ends up facing a life sentence after he is charged with attempted murder.
The pair earlier come to blows when bad boy David's ex Tina (Michelle Keegan) tells Graeme (Craig Gazey) that he tried to kiss her.
Humiliated David (Jack P Shepherd) then steals gran Audrey's car and accidentally ploughs into Graeme, sending him flying.
An insider at the ITV1 soap said: "As far as police are concerned it looks like an open and shut case. They fell out and David ran him down. No one believes David when he says he can't remember it. He's just told too many lies before."
David starts to black out more often and is finally diagnosed as epileptic, but it's touch and go as to whether it saves him from jail.
The shocking scenes will air later this year.
Coronation Street star Michelle Keegan has revealed that her character Tina McIntyre is keeping quiet about David Platt attacking her to protect boyfriend Graeme Proctor.
The actress, who joined the ITV1 soap in 2008, told What's On TV that Tina is in a difficult position because Graeme is best friends with David.
She said: "David is Graeme's best mate and she doesn't want to upset him. She's sick of fighting against David. She's moved on and just wants him to keep away from her.
"Unfortunately, Graeme keeps including David in their plans. He helps them move into Dev's flat and the atmosphere between them is pretty bad - she's saying, 'Get out' to him with her eyes."
Keegan added: "She does question herself and wonders if it was her fault. But she knows it wasn't. When he tried it on she pushed him away then suddenly he was on top of her. He had her arms pinned down and she was truly scared of him at that point.
"It's difficult with David always seeming to be around. At one point he thanks Tina for not saying anything, but she makes it clear she's kept quiet for Graeme's sake and not David's."
Jack P. Shepherd has revealed that Coronation Street producers decided not to show his atler ego's epileptic fits.
Shepherd's character David Platt may face a jail sentence after running over his friend Graeme Proctor (Craig Gazey) in his car. David blacked out in court, leading doctors to conclude that epilepsy may have been responsible for the incident.
The actor told Inside Soap: "I was worried about whether they'd want me to act out having fits, but they don't.
"It would be too distressing for viewers, so we aren't going to do that. All you see is me blacking out."
David Platt is certainly not a man to be messed with, but Coronation Street could be about to air some some of his darkest antics yet when his new revenge plan is revealed next week.
David (Jack P Shepherd) will decide to use social media in a bid to target Macca – the friend of Kylie's killer Clayton. And it's sure to leave fans wondering what he's planning to do next.
David's latest scheme will come after he raises eyebrows by ruthlessly threatening schoolgirl Lauren, who has been bullying his niece Bethany.
After Lauren reports the incident to the police, David's family are understandably concerned that his anger issues are taking hold again.
Gail is therefore relieved when David reassures her otherwise – promising that he's binned the blood-stained hoodie he was wearing when Kylie died – and is determined to move on with his life.
But David's true intentions will soon become clear when he later logs onto his computer, having set up a fake profile online.
Pushing forward with his plan, David sends a friend request to Macca, but what has he got planned? And could he be putting himself in danger?
Coronation Street
Could Coronation Street's David Platt be putting a dark revenge plan into action in these brand new spoiler pictures?
Jack P Shepherd has been spotted filming on location for upcoming scenes which see his character fill up two petrol cans at a trip to a petrol station.
Is David just stocking up on supplies, or is there a sinister scheme at play here? Come on, this is David Platt we're talking about, so do you even have to ask?
The scenes show David lost in thought as he makes the visit, before stashing the filled cans away in his car.

Then he stares mournfully at a picture of his late wife Kylie in his wallet, seemingly as a reminder of exactly why he's doing this.
As always with on-location photos, we'll have to tune into Corrie in a few weeks' time to find out what it all means - but it seems likely that it all ties in with David's plan for revenge against those responsible for Kylie's death.
Coronation Street's producer Kate Oates recently teased that David's vengeance will culminate in a big stunt later this year - and that hint followed sneaky tabloid reports of a huge Weatherfield explosion on the way.
Will David cause his biggest cobbles carnage yet, or are we getting carried away with ourselves? As ever. we'll keep you posted.

Kate said recently: "We are going to have a nice big stunt coming up in the autumn. It's traditional, you know! That will possibly be tied up with the Platts' story.
"A story I'm really excited about and something we'll be playing really big in the autumn is David's story in the wake of Kylie's stabbing. What I'm interested in there is the journey that David will go on.
"In the chapel of rest scenes, we've basically seen David promise to avenge Kylie's death. However, he also promised when Kylie was dying that he'd be a brilliant parent and he'd look after the children and would protect them.
"Those two promises are in direct conflict with each other. One of those promises is based in love and nurture and protecting his children. The other promise is based on vengeance and hate, and on wanting to get his own back at all costs.
"What I think we'll see playing out over the next few weeks is which of those promises is going to win out and which one will eventually grow and envelop the other. I think you can guess which way I'm going to go with that one!"
Digital Spy
Again, not surprised as Kate Oates loves her baddies. She turned both Todd and David evil again for shock value. YAY! So much for the "going back to the original Corrie." Kate is all about twists and stunts. Who cares about ruining friendships (Todd and Tracy), relationships (Todd and Billy), who cares about far fetched storylines as long as they bring in viewers! YAAAAS! Quantity over quality!
Demon David is never far from the surface no matter how good a husband and father he is. It was only a couple of years ago that he tried to kill Nick for goodness sake! Then there was his disturbing lack of emotion about Callum's death and cover up.Quote:

People who have the capacity to be so nasty don't just lose that. It may stay hidden under the surface for a long time but it's always there. With David's losing his beloved and Todd being in love (but rejected) for the first time in ages, I'd say it's a natural time for both men's demons to return. They haven't been turned evil - they always were.

David Platt isn't going anywhere, as it looks like Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd has signed a new deal. :cheer:
The actor has been on the ITV soap since April 2000, and according to The Sun, he is now tied down for an extra year.
David has been a major character in Weatherfield ever since he joined 16 years ago, being involved in numerous high-profile storylines.
Lately, he has had to cope with the death of his wife Kylie (Paula Lane), after she was stabbed by Clayton Hibbs, just as the couple had agreed to relocate to Barbados.
David has since been plotting revenge against those responsible for Kylie's demise.
Coronation Street's producer Kate Oates recently teased that David's vengeance will culminate in a big stunt later this year - and that hint followed sneaky tabloid reports of a huge Weatherfield explosion on the way.

Corrie also announced this week that Toyah Battersby will be back on the cobbles for the first time in 13 years. Here's why her return, quite frankly, will be amazing.

He is the best thing in Corrie.
David's consistently been my favourite thing about Corrie since he smashed the street up in rage all those years ago. :DQuote:

You'd think those cops would have a little sympathy with his state of mind even though they have to treat him like anyone else who's broken the law.
I don't think David's supposed to have thrown the brick through the window. He did put up the posters and reveal Clayton's identity online however.Quote:

david wants revenge for kylie's death against clayton or any of his mates
David Platt's family are forced to take drastic action in Coronation Street next week, after uncovering his devastating revenge plan against Kylie's killer.
An unhinged David (Jack P Shepherd) is held prisoner in the Bistro cellar after his loved ones realise that he's planning to kill Clayton Hibbs and himself.
Bitterly disappointed and angry after hearing that Clayton may never face justice for Kylie's murder, David has come up with a scheme to target him when he appears in court for his trial.
David's masterplan is to fill his car with petrol and use it to blow up Clayton in the ultimate revenge attack, but his payback plot is also a tragic suicide mission as he's prepared to lose his own life in the process.
This becomes devastatingly clear to Gail (Helen Worth) when she discovers a farewell video that David has left for his family on his laptop.
David's first attempt to carry out the plan fails when he heads to the courthouse, watches Clayton from afar and turns the ignition on his car - only to break down in frustration when the engine fails.
Not long afterwards, Gail intervenes by striking against David with help from Nick (Ben Price) and Sarah (Tina O'Brien). The trio lock him in the Bistro cellar in the hope that they can bring him back from the brink and keep him out of trouble in the meantime.
This also leaves the Platts with a whole lot of explaining to do in front of Robert Preston (Tristan Gemmill), as they reluctantly come clean to him about how they're trying to stop David from committing a murder.

Never one to give up easily when it comes to a dark revenge plan, David later makes a daring bid for freedom - but the big question is whether he still has time to make his dark fantasy a reality.
What happens next is being kept strictly under wraps, but Corrie bosses are promising that it will have far-reaching consequences for more than just the Platt family.
Corrie's producer Kate Oates has also previously teased that David's revenge is leading up to a huge October stunt, so it's safe to say that we should be expecting something pretty spectacular right about now.
"We are going to have a nice big stunt coming up in the autumn. It's traditional, you know! That will possibly be tied up with the Platts' story," Kate revealed in July.
Coronation Street airs these scenes in the week commencing Monday, October 17 on ITV.
Digital Spy
Would David even in this current state out for revenge want to leave Max and Lily as orphans, he is always seen as a good father putting them first
Grief and depression can totally change the personality of a person .. :(
Noone would stuff whole card board boxes like that in an industrial bin.first of all it costs, secondly You can unfold and then bin. Or you could take it to the recycling centre. The whole boxes and driving a car into them has put me off this storyline. I mean standing outside a building opening and shutting a zippo lighter . Where are security?
Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd thinks his widowed character David Platt will find love again at some point in the future.
David was left heartbroken last year when his wife Kylie died in his arms after being fatally stabbed by thug Clayton. And his life has, quite literally at times, descended into a car crash ever since.
However, Jack thinks it would be fitting with the nature of Soapland if David moved on with someone else, believing that his alter ego can't be miserable forever.
"Whenever I say that David could go off with other people, journalists have always said that he has to be sad forever because what happened with Kylie was so traumatic," he told the Radio Times.
"But things do move on quickly in soap. Before you know it, he'll be shacked up with somebody else or getting married again.
"It's one of the reasons I like playing the character so much. I just read what the writers have in store for David and believe in it. And if I believe in it, then the audience will believe in it too."
Jack is also full of praise for the show's current producer Kate Oates, who took over the post last year.
"I think Kate's done a great job so far," he said. "She's giving everyone more of a chance to be on screen, so that the viewers can see a greater number of characters.
"I thought it was really noticeable during the big crash in October – we saw all the cast having their own input. For me, the show is at its best when the whole Street comes together."
Coronation Street spoiler: David Platt’s secret bomb plot is exposed after he gives Anna Windass £20,000 secret donation after ‘feeling guilty’
Coronation Street character David Platt is set to hand over a £20,000 anonymous donation to Anna Windass in apology for causing her serious burns.
But his secret bomb plot could be exposed after he’s overheard discussing his involvement with her injuries during a conversation with Gail.
Anna, who was burnt after David’s bomb plot backfired, has been struggling financially ever since and feeling guilty he gives her the windfall after a salon client leaves him money in her will.
A source said: “David is going to discover a client of his at the salon has left him £20k in her will.
“But things get even more complicated when Shona overhears him discussing giving it to Anna during a conversation with Gail.
“He talks candidly about his involvement with Anna’s injuries and it could provide brilliant ammunition.”
Anna was tempted to sue David Platt in January after she suffered horrific burns when his plot to blow up the courthouse went wrong.
David, played by Jack P Shepherd, blew himself up in a bid to kill Clayton as part of a revenge murder storyline.
The awful incident came just hours after a deliriously happy Anna agreed to move in with boyfriend Kevin and take their relationship to the next level.
But all that was undone by David Platt’s revenge murder fantasy.
After escaping from the cellar in the Bistro and making his way to the car he bought to carry out his suicidal murder mission to kill his wife Kylie’s murderer, he covered himself and the car in petrol to stop his family from stopping him.
As he careered down the cobbles, lighter still in hand, his speed picked up and he spotted Lily too late to stop.
Desperately swerving to avoid his daughter, David flipped the car, and with Gary Windass running into the road to try to save Lily, he hit both of them and became trapped under the car.
Fans couldn’t believe what had happened, with one fan writing: “Corrie almost gave me a heart attack tonight! So much drama!”
Another added: “Wow, anyone watching #CoronationStreet ? May have just watched one of the best bits of soap opera filming ever!”
