Out of all the villains on Coronation Street, Jodie Ramsey (Olivia Frances-Brown) has got the busiest schedule. Not content with destroying her sister Shona’s life, she’s found a brand new target…
Revenge is a dish best served cold, but for Jodie it’s more like a buffet, because she’s got way too much on her plate. The whole purpose of moving to Weatherfield and getting her feet under the Platts’ table was to tear Shona’s family apart from within, to pay her back for ‘abandoning her’ to their toxic dad by fleeing the family home as kids.
However, so far, this bunny boiling baddie’s got a tendency for getting just a wee bit distracted. She’s deviated wildly from her vendetta by keeping a weird box of trinkets and mementos, stolen from her neighbours, including Bernie Winter (Jane Hazelgrove) and Brian Packham (Peter Gunn).
Not only that, but she’s started feuds with Adam Barlow (Sam Robertson) and Tracy Barlow (Kate Ford) simply because she refused to clean up after her dog.
Well, her bonkers behaviour really came back to bite Jodie in the behind last week. Her months-long to slowly seduce David Platt (Jack P Shepherd) went down in flames shortly after Jodie discovered a letter she sent Shona years ago when they were kids – a letter Shona always claimed she never received. This letter proved that Shona had no interest in reaching out to her little sister.
Betrayed, Jodie saw red – and that was her downfall.
Dressing in Shona’s lingerie, Jodie lit and candles and set the mood,waiting for a drunken David to stumble home from Swarla’s wedding. He climbed into bed with who he thought was Shona… and kissed Jodie.
That’s when everything fell apart.
Months of careful scheming went down the tubes as a raging David accused Jodie of trying it on with him. Despite Jodie’s best efforts to gaslight the hell out of him, David wasn’t having any of it and Sarah Platt (Tina O’Brien) got involved, siding with her brother.
Jodie was kicked out, into the cold with nowhere to go.
But this is Jodie we’re talking about. She’ll always find a way to talk her way out of trouble. Next week’s Corrie will see Weatherfield’s answer to Fatal Attraction try to stick around despite David’s demands that she moves out by planting seeds of doubt in Shona’s mind about what happened between them in the bedroom.

Just when things couldn’t get any worse for Jodie, she makes a new enemy… and potentially, one just as mad as she is.
Cassie Plummer (Claire Sweeney) is set to run afoul of Jodie in upcoming episodes, which is particularly interesting, seeing as her ‘explosive’exit has recently been teased by Coronation Street producer Kate Brooks.
‘As you know, Cassie’s leaving us, and so it will contribute to her exit, which is going to be massive and quite explosive.’
The formidable mother of Tyrone Dobbs’ (Alan Halsall) and girlfriend of Steve McDonald (Simon Gregson) may have changed her ways since her days struggling with drug addiction, but she’s still got a crazy streak a mild wide – as proved when she almost killed Corrie legend Ken Barlow (William Roache) by lacing his drinks with drugs so she wouldn’t lose her job as his carer.
You don’t want to get on Cassie’s bad side… which makes her upcoming conflict with Jodie all the more delicious. Upcoming scenes will see the two warring women going to war over how Cassie treats the kids in her care.
Outside the Kabin, Cassie is laying down the law to Bertie and Dorin and refuses to buy them any sweets, when a passing Jodie takes issue with her decision.
When Jodie makes a dig suggesting she’s too old to look after young children Cassie marches off.
Later, Jodie fills Daniel Osbourne(Rob Mallard) in on her run in with Cassie. Daniel fills Jodie in on how Cassie drugged Ken to try and con him out of cash and warns that she’s playing with fire.
Will Jodie listen? More importantly, will this clash of Corrie titans result in Cassie leaving the Cobbles?
