The following article contains spoilers from the episode of Coronation Street dated March 5. It hasn’t aired on ITV1 yet, but can be viewed on ITVX.

Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances-Brown) could be about to take action to keep someone quiet in Coronation Street, as a Weatherfield resident has made a massive discovery about her.

The character, introduced to us during Corriedale, has spent the past couple of days at the hospital supporting David and Shona Platt (Jack P Shepherd and Julia Goulding), who were there for baby Harper’s operation.

Initially, Jodie and the rest of the Platt clan were in the hospital lobby waiting for news on Harper. However, when David and Shona learnt that their daughter had suffered a bleed, a stressed David told everyone to leave.

Jodie stayed behind because she wanted to try to get closer to David. Whether this worked or not remains to be seen, but she did give David a hug, and he told her that she cannot tell anyone about it.

While in the corridor, Jodie bumped into a mum who assumed that Harper was her daughter.

Jodie had to think on her feet in today’s episode, as the mum crossed paths with her again.

Prior to this, Shona and David discovered that Jodie had spent the entire night at the hospital with them. They thought it was a bit strange, but their exhaustion meant neither of them had the energy to grow suspicious.

When Jodie bumped into the mum, she happily chatted about Harper’s operation and once again pretended that she was her daughter. To Jodie’s shock, though, Shona was overhearing the entire thing.

Jodie quickly claimed that the mum wasn’t very well mentally, and went along with her assumption that she was Harper’s mum because it was easier. Shona was far too tired to wonder if Jodie’s story was true, which meant she had got away with it.

Jodie’s ‘trophy box’ discovered

Meanwhile, at the Platt home, Lily (Grace Ashcroft-Gardner) was searching for some schoolwork. During this, she came across a box in a cupboard. Curious, she opened it and spotted the cut out of Bernie Winter’s (Jane Hazlegrove) face, which was stolen by Jodie a couple of days ago.

When Jodie returned from the hospital, Lily confronted her aunt about the box. The teen had also noticed Brian Packham’s (Peter Gunn) book inside, and wondered why she had stolen it along with the picture of Bernie.

Jodie did a very good job at covering up the truth and told Lily that she nicked the book because she wanted to stick up for her niece, as Shona and David never do.

Jodie asked Lily if she was going to keep quiet, and was thrown when the youngster said she wasn’t sure.
