Viewers complain after David Platt swears before the watershed

How dare he say something so rude before 9pm!

Coronation Street’s David Platt might be one of the most vengeful and vindictive characters in the ITV soap but it seems that he has finally done something that has stunned viewers.

He may have tried to bump off his brother in the past, taken down teenage bullies with his hairdressing scissors and plotted to murder his wife, Kylie’s killer but nothing compared to this.

He only went and swore before the 9pm watershed!

It seems that saying “b*****d” at 7.50pm is crossing way over the line.

Let’s hope that his mum Gail washes his mouth out with soap when she catches up with him.

Predictably, fans of the show flooded Twitter with their thoughts on Jack P Shepherd’s character and his potty mouth…

There was some that thought the reaction was well over the top…

To be fair to David, he had been locked in the cellar of the Bistro by his family.

If there was a situation when some expletives could be used, then being incarcerated by his nearest and dearest could be it.

It was for his own good though as he had promised to take revenge on Kylie’s killer, shouting: “Let me out of here so I can kill the b*****d!”

Let’s hope that Corrie doesn’t go to an after nine slot, as David could turn the air blue!
