In recent episodes of Coronation Street, viewers have been confronted with a series of tragic events involving beloved characters David Platt and Daisy Midgeley.

David Platt’s Ordeal

David Platt, portrayed by Jack P. Shepherd, found himself ensnared in a perilous situation due to mounting debts owed to gangster Harvey Gaskell. In a desperate attempt to provide for his family, David orchestrated a plan to have himself killed for the life insurance payout. This led to a harrowing incident where David, intoxicated and despondent, stumbled into the path of an oncoming car outside the Rovers Return pub. The collision left him gravely injured, with his life hanging in the balance. citeturn0search3
