Spoilers: David faces death in Corrie after attacking a teen gang

Whenever there is trouble in his world, David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) tends to hit self destruct and since giving up hope of any way back for his marriage to Shona Ramsey (Julia Goulding), he has gone down another dark road in Coronation Street.

Feeling like he has nothing left worth fighting for, David has been seeking adrenaline hits from putting himself in serious danger. Confronting drugs gangs and picking fights, David is a loose cannon and he very nearly ends up taking it too far in coming episodes – but will Shona’s return save him?

David returns from his run out of breath. Gail worries he’s pushing himself too hard but when a furious David hears that Shona is being taken to visit Clayton (Callum Harrison) in prison he heads out on another run.

David approaches some youths on bikes and purposely shoves one of them over and then stamps on the bike. David sprints away as the youths give chase.

David’s at full sprint as he’s pursued by the angry mob. Finding himself cornered in an alley David braces himself for a beating but a police car pulls up and the youths scatter.

Having been released without charge, David tells Craig he’s learnt his lesson and won’t be looking for any more trouble. Hearing about David’s behaviour, Sarah (Tina O’Brien) resolves to help him. Visiting Shona she begs her to come home and give David a chance.

Clayton Hibbs has been manipulating Shona’s mind to poison her against David, who she has no memory of – but she will end up back on the Street. But it’s going to be a long road for any possible reunion between her and David.

Shona’s key worker has overheard Clayton’s scheming behaviour and manages to persuade Shona to visit the Platts’. She doesn’t recognise anyone but there is hope when she instinctively knows where the teabags are kept.

However as the pressure of the confusing situation becomes too much, she goes missing. Is David about to lose her again?
