He's managed to avoid many serious scraps during his two decades on the cobbles, but should Coronation Street's David Platt be watching his back with uncle Stephen Reid on the scene? Jack P Shepherd, who has played to former bad boy and son of Platt matriarch Gail since he was 12, has shared how the cast really feels. The characters remain none the wiser about the dastardly businessman.
Stephen, played by Todd Boyce, returned to Weatherfield earlier this year and it wasn't long before the truth behind his reappearance was revealed. The character was suffering serious money trouble and soon began a plan to fleece his mother, Audrey Roberts, out of her cash.
But as he got more desperate, his plot came close to being revealed to those closest to him. And it's now been a couple of months since Corrie viewers were left floored when David's uncle Stephen turned to drastic measures to keep his money woes and plan to rob his mother secret and killed Leo.
