Does Jodie die in Coronation Street? What happens next after Shona and Jodie’s shooting showdown
Jodie was left fighting for her life...
Coronation Street has left fans wondering what happens next after today’s episode saw Jodie shot during an argument with Shona.
In the episode, which focused entirely on Jodie, Shona and David, Jodie’s plotting against her sister came to an epic conclusion as she finally got her claws into David, or so she thought.
The episode opened with a flashforward, showing the Platts’ living room covered in blood and with belongings strewn everywhere.
The scene then cut back to the present, where Jodie was relishing Shona being gone. She had made David a fancy breakfast spread, which he was only too happy to tuck in to.
As Jodie played the housewife role to perfection, Bethany arrived and was shocked to see her still there.
She clearly assumed Jodie would have been thrown out after she told Shona everything the night before. But David told her to keep out and leave them to breakfast.
Jodie got her claws into David
As Jodie revelled in David’s attention, the pair spent the morning together in apparent domestic bliss. With Shona still at the hotel after her huge fight with Lily, Jodie made it her mission to seduce David, and whipped him up a lavish lunch, complete with wine.
As the wine flowed, David confessed that things hadn’t been right with Shona for a while, and that he missed having someone to love.
As David seemingly opened up, Jodie jumped at the opportunity to fill Shona’s shoes. Before long, she had muscled in on her sister’s husband and her life.
But just as the pair were about to kiss, Shona walked in and apparently ‘caught’ them together.
Jodie then laid it on thick with her sister, telling her that she needed help and that David was hers now.
Bethany’s plan worked
But it quickly transpired that David and Shona had been working together to catch Jodie out.
Shona had been listening on the phone as David pretended to be falling for Jodie, and she’d heard all the vile things her sister had said about her.
When the penny dropped for Jodie, she was horrified that she’d been tricked. She went into victim mode, claiming that she was like this because Shona abandoned her when she was a child.
Eventually, Shona let Jodie explain everything. But as she twisted the truth, Shona didn’t believe a word. Meanwhile, David packed Jodie’s things upstairs.
Later, David found Jodie’s trinket box and was horrified to find Lisa’s police badge. He also found a photo of Shona and David’s wedding day with Shona’s face cut out.
But as David went to call Lisa to tell her about his discovery, Jodie pulled the gun on him.
Shona and David laughed at the fact that she was threatening them with a fake gun, but Jodie revealed it was real. However, they thought it was another of her lies, and as Shona tried to wrestle it off her, the gun went off, and Jodie got shot.
