Coronation Street fans have said they 'hate to say it' as they made a U-turn on a relatively new character on the cobbles, who they've now named the 'new Gary Windass'.

Fans of the ITV soap know that David Platt has been hiding many secrets, but one of the biggest is that he stole Harvey Gaskell's money, which brother Damon Hay had offered to ex-girlfriend Sarah Platt when her daughter Bethany needed help following botched cosmetic surgery in Turkey.

In scenes aired last week, David was furious, releasing not only was he having to share his birthday with Christmas and his mother Gail Platt's sixth wedding day to Jesse Chadwick, but also feeling that his mum had turned her back on him with her plans to leave Weatherfield behind.

Jesse covered that David was saving for Shona's Christmas gift but later, he urged David to accept to a deal to take the cash off his hands, without losing the funds to buy the house, and the pair reached an agreement.
