The year 2025 is shaping up to be a difficult one for David Platt. With his marriage in ruins, his life in danger from criminals, and the loss of his mother Gail, things couldn't seem to get any worse. However, according to Coronation Street boss Kate Brooks, there's more tragedy in store for David.
It has been confirmed that a major stunt will take place at the Platt house, leaving David to face the loss of what he holds dear. This news comes after reports and pictures surfaced of a fire at the Platt house. Kate elaborates on the situation, sharing details about the build-up and the devastating aftermath.
"It all goes to pot!" she exclaims. "David made the mistake of stealing a large sum of money from Harvey, thinking it would help his family and save their home. But things escalate quickly, and David finds himself struggling to protect his loved ones and pay off a massive debt."
The question on everyone's mind is whether David and his wife Shona will be able to endure the challenges that lie ahead. Kate reveals that it all comes to a head in February with a massive stunt that will have dire consequences for David. Despite his good intentions, David's actions will result in the loss of many things that are important to him.
But this storyline also presents a great opportunity for actor Jack P Shepherd to showcase his talent, as David will face repercussions beyond the fire. "It's a real journey for David," Kate explains. "He means well, but he makes mistakes and there are consequences not just for his family, but for the whole community. Someone unexpected gets caught up in David's downfall."
With Gail gone, there's no one to keep David in line. "What I want to show is that this is Coronation Street," says Kate. "David is just a hairdresser, not used to dealing with drug lords and gangsters. He's a regular guy thrown into a dangerous world, where people act without any regard for the consequences. They don't care about David or his dog, which may or may not be a spoiler," she adds with a laugh.
But David isn't the only Platt facing challenges. Kate hints at more drama to come for the rest of the family. "There's a lot in store for the Platts," she teases. "They are such a strong family, especially David and Shona. But they will be put to the test in 2025. Can they survive it? I won't say, but they will definitely struggle."
She also mentions the dynamic between David, his sister Sarah, brother Nick, and stepson Max. With Gail gone, they will have to fend for themselves, and it becomes clear that they need their mother's guidance to stay on the right path. "Max is just as reckless as David at times, and it's a recipe for disaster," says Kate. "The Platts will have their hands full."
As for whether everyone will make it out of this situation unscathed, Kate's love for the characters provides a glimmer of hope. "I adore David, Shona, and the rest of the Platts," she says. "They are a fantastic family, and I hope they come out of this okay."
But regardless of the outcome, one thing is for sure: David will have to live with the consequences of his actions for a long time.
