The Manchester Evening News has paparazzi pictures taken this week showing Corrie newcomer Josh Tucker targeting David Platt ahead of the show's male rape storyline. The pictures were taken as the scene was filmed at The Shack bar and grill in the Northern Quarter in Manchester.
And the MEN says that Josh will drug David before he rapes him. The report goes on to say that David goes on a night out with Josh when his drink is spiked and he wakes the next morning to discover the terrifying truth that he’s been attacked.
The scenes are expected to be screened in March.
It was recently confirmed that David’s dad Martin will return as part of the storyline, with Sean Wilson reprising his role after 13 years. You can read more on that here.
