Jodie sinks to shocking new low in Coronation Street

Tonight’s episode of Coronation Street saw the vengeful Jodie Ramsey make a desperate move to seduce her sister Shona’s (Julia Goulding) husband, David Platt (Jack P Shepherd)… with explosive fallout and deadly consequences.

Jodie has played a careful game until now.

Since she first set foot on the cobbles, this bunny-boilin

g baddie has made it her mission to wreak revenge on her sister Shona for running away from home years ago and leaving her little sister with their toxic father.

As payback, Jodie’s been trying to take away what matters to Shona the most – her family. With a steady drop of lies and manipulation, she’s been taking every opportunity to get cosy with David and drip poison about Shona’s parenting kills in the ears of their daughter Lily (Grace Ashcroft-Gardner).

It’s definitely been an effective long game, which started to cause cracks in the Platts’ relationship when Shona’s refusal to accept Jodie give Lily an ipad ruined the teenager’s birthday.

But Jodie’s slow-burn scheme was derailed last week when her shadowy past caught up with her.

Olivia, one of the children Jodie once looked after as a nanny, dropped in seemingly to catch up… but the real reason for her visit soon became clear when Scary Poppins caught the kid ransacking searching her belongings for a mysterious hard drive.

After kicking Olivia out, Jodie was confronted by Shona, and told her sister what may have been either the truth, or a pack of lies, about stealing the hard drive from her dangerous ex, Olivia’s dad, as an insurance policy so he wouldn’t kill her.

Horrified that her sister had brought danger to her doorstep, Shona told Jodie to get as far away from Coronation Street as possible – for her own sake as much as her family’s.

Too late.

In tonight’s episode, Jodie was already packing her bags when a heartbroken Lily caught her about to run away. She begged to go with Jodie, and when Jodie refused, Lily lashed out and cried in tears that Jodie should just do them all a favour and leave.

Then things got worse. Hearing a scream, Jodie rushed outside to find Shona being accosted by two thugs searching for the hard drive.
