Coronation Street ITVX episode teases grave danger for Doug as deadly shooting looms
He's rumbled Jodie's plan and she will make him pay...
Coronation Street spoilers are included in this article about Jodie and Doug. The episode hasn’t aired on TV, but it is available to watch on ITVX and YouTube.
Today’s Coronation Street sees Jodie step up her plan to get her claws into David, finding a way to spend time alone with him.
Viewers have watched for weeks as Jodie has wormed her way into Shona’s life. She’s made herself indispensable, while hiding her true intentions.
After the doctor told Shona to rest, Jodie has swooped in to play happy families with David. This week Shona feels like a stranger in her own life as her sister takes over.
Jodie gets closer to David
Today’s episode sees Jodie lie about a new man she has been messaging. Shona is desperate to know more, oblivious that it is David she’s secretly messaging.
Later, Shona encourages Jodie to meet up with her new man. She even tells her to get a blow-dry from David before she leaves for her date.
Jodie doesn’t need asking twice, and laps up David’s attention as he does her hair at the salon. But once he’s done, Jodie pretends her ‘date’ has cancelled, and turns on the waterworks.
Feeling sorry for Jodie, David offers her a cuppa. But instead she pulls some fizz out of her bag and asks him to join her for a drink.
David agrees, and the pair spend the afternoon drinking at the salon, much to Jodie’s delight.
Doug catches Jodie out in Coronation Street
Before she heads home, Jodie pulls David in for a lingering hug, and tells him how grateful she is. But she doesn’t realise her dad, Doug, has seen everything through the salon window.
As he confronts Jodie outside, accusing her of ‘doing it again’, she turns on her dad, manipulating him by asking if he has been taking his anti-psychotic medication.
Doug is adamant he is perfectly fine, but she tells him he is paranoid and they should go to the hospital to get him checked out. Defeated, Doug walks off, but the look on Jodie’s face is enough to show she’s now plotting to silence him.
Coronation Street: Jodie does the unthinkable to Doug
Knowing he’s the fly in the ointment as she gets closer to shoving Shona out of her own life, Jodie needs to act fast. Tomorrow’s episode will see her swapping Doug’s anti-psychotic drugs for normal painkillers so that he starts to unravel once again.
But spoilers for next week’s Coronation Street also reveal that Jodie’s sinister plan comes to a head when someone is shot. As her lies start to unravel, Jodie panics and a gun is drawn when Shona confronts her sister.
Could Doug be the one who gets caught in the crossfire?
