David Platt’s life is set to spiral further into chaos in Coronation Street, as he becomes
the target of a shocking murder plot.
Just when he thought things couldn’t get any worse, next week’s episodes will see David facing a terrifying encounter that could cost him his life.
The drama stems from a life-changing mistake David made last year when he took money belonging to dangerous criminal Harvey Gaskell.
At the time, he believed there would be no consequences, given that Harvey was locked up behind bars.
However, David quickly learned that Harvey’s influence stretched far beyond prison walls, leaving him in a desperate situation.
A Desperate Plan Gone Wrong
In a frantic bid to settle his debt, David considered setting fire to his own home to claim the insurance money. However, before he could go through with it, his son Max took matters into his own hands and ended up committing the arson himself.
With financial troubles still looming over him, David turns to an old acquaintance, Andy, who is well-known for his shady dealings. Hoping for a way out, David soon realizes he has only put himself in even greater danger.
Andy returns to Weatherfield in the upcoming episodes, actively searching for David. When he finally catches up with him outside the salon, the confrontation takes a terrifying turn—Andy brandishes a knife and reveals that Harvey has ordered David’s death. Harvey’s plan is to cash in on David’s life insurance, ensuring that his debt is paid in the most brutal way possible.
A Dangerous Gamble
David is left shaken but knows he cannot let his fear show around his family and friends. As he tries to carry on as normal, he struggles to hide his growing panic from Shona and Nick, who can sense something is wrong.
The tension escalates further when the episode jumps forward in time, showing medics battling to save David’s life. The shocking scene is accompanied by a haunting voiceover revealing that David has effectively ordered a hit on himself, knowing he only has hours left before Harvey’s men make their move.
In a heartbreaking decision, David drowns his sorrows by drinking heavily before staggering into the road, seemingly accepting his fate. However, the situation takes an unexpected and devastating twist when a car comes hurtling toward him.
A Tragic Collision
As Shona watches in horror, David is struck by the speeding vehicle. But he isn’t the only victim—Daisy Midgeley is also caught up in the collision, leaving two well-known Weatherfield residents fighting for their lives.
Hearing the crash, Nick, Sarah, Kit, and Jenny rush out of the Rovers Return to find the aftermath of the devastating accident. As they take in the shocking scene, they see both David and Daisy lying seriously injured on the ground.
Shona races to David’s side and finds him bleeding heavily, barely clinging to life. Medics soon arrive, and both David and Daisy are rushed to the hospital. As their loved ones wait anxiously, the question remains—will they survive this horrifying ordeal?
What’s Next for David and Daisy?
With David’s life hanging in the balance and Harvey’s threats still looming, the next few episodes promise to be some of the most gripping in Coronation Street history. Will David make it through the attack, or has he truly reached the end of the road? And with Daisy also caught up in the chaos, how will her fate impact those around her?
One thing is certain—life on the cobbles is never short of drama, and this shocking turn of events will leave viewers on the edge of their seats.
