(Corrie) Do you think we'll ever get rid of the weasel?
I absolutely despise the character of "David Platt" and was wondering if the actor has shown any interest in pursuing other avenues. From what I can gather Jack P Shephard seems perfectly happy where he is and has shown no signs of leaving. Do you think we'll be stuck with him for another say....20-30 years or so? I don't think I could cope. Everytime I see that smug face, I want to smack the living daylights out of him.

There are plenty more weasels in Corrie I would like to see the back of before Demon David.
Sean, Michelle, Fizz, Todd, Tracey, Chesney and Sian, Yasmeen and her whole boring family apart from Kal, Kylie, Maria, Asda, Aldi and Dev, the list is almost endless. |

David will be there for a long time I think but he is not a deadwood character like Maria or Sean who sadly will also be there until somebody is brave enough to axe them.

I was never a big fan of David but he has improved so much in the last few years, especially since his pairing with Kylie.

I think David Platt is a great character and he's a good actor, there's plenty of mileage left in this character yet.

Nice but dim Tim is the only character in CS who is even remotely likeable since the aura of Stuart Blackburn was cast over the show. Nowadays it's a grim tale of backstreet sadness, sorrow and unpleasantness. They try to do humour but it's a fail IMO.
I used to look forward to Corrie but my heart sinks now when I wonder what fresh horror awaits me in the next episode.....and yet I still leave the tv on in hope. |

I don't think that he's a bad actor, he is annoying though. Having said that, the whole of the Platt family are.

David can be a loving character especially in his scenes with his children but he always has his dark unpredictable side and when it makes an appearance it makes him interesting to watch. I know that he is being disrespectful to Gail when he calls her.. "Gail" but it makes me laugh. ![]() ![]() I also dislike his brother I have always found Nick irritating. |

I like David but he is given far too much screen time compared to other characters and seems to go from one leqding storyline to another. I do think they should let him breathe and fade into the background for a year or so before featuring him again in another major storyline.
