I think David Platt is very under-used.
And why hasnt he had a girlfriend yet. Considering his sister was active by 12 it is strange he has never had one.
Could it be that maybe he is gay! How brilliant to watch Eilleen find out, after all Gail said about Todd.

he was one of my favourite young actors before but now he has become bad. He sticks his nose out in every scene like its normal, i like him but wish he would stop doing that. He wasnt used alot untill recently though. gay! like you said can you think about Gails face!

Yes I totally agree, they should be doing alot more with this character!!...I love the comical element they have given him, like when he went to school drunk, that was excellent, v funny!!...but they need to give him some drama now, some antics that are really going to upset Gail!!!...lol...

I know Eileen does a superb job of getting her back up but Gail is at her best when she's rattled, and I'd love her darling son to do the running now...lol

I don't rate him as an actor.

The broad northern monotones were 'cute' when he was nine or ten but it's just daft now.

He is very underused but hes still one of my favourite characters on the show. I love him being evil and hes set to cause more trouble next week for Phil and Gail. Should be good

I can't stand the actor personally...unless he improves a lot, I honestly see them doing a Nick Tilsley on him in about 3 years...

I really don't like David. I find him very irritating.

And since he's become "bad" I dislike him even more.

I agree, I don't like David and don't particuarly rate him. I also don't think he will be good enough in the role as an adult.

He's become one of my fave young Corrie characters recently, I agree he is very underused and he is a talented actor.

Regarding him having a girlfriend, wouldn't it be funny if he turned out to be gay! after all the Todd/Sarah stuff.

Gail and Gay in the same house

Not every teenage boy without a girlfriend is gay.

I think he should go out with Dev's daughter Amber. You can just see Dev getting suddenly protective of a daughter he bearly knows and then Gail will have another parent to fight with ...

I think the actress is called Nikki Patel but I have no idea what she has done before Corrie.

Though they could highlight it, I haven't seen it done much on any show really. .. Least not soap. ..

Home & away was the only one, of course Lana in neighbours too. ..

It would be absolutely priceless to see Gail's reaction if that did happen - having said that, I highly doubt the Corrie writers would go along that route.

I quite like the "evil David" we have been seeing lately
