Coronation Street spoilers<\/a> follow.<\/p>\n

Coronation Street stars Jack P Shepherd and Ben Price have confirmed that the Platts will feature in this year’s Christmas episode.<\/p>\n

The actors, who play David Platt and Nick Tilsley, revealed that they’ve been busy filming the 2026 festive edition \u2013 which sees their chaotic on-screen family gather for lunch at the Bistro.<\/p>\n

Jack and Ben shared the news on today’s episode of their On the Sofa<\/a> podcast (12 October), warning that they were sworn to secrecy about exact storyline details.<\/p>\n

“We finished late at work because we were filming Christmas Day,” Ben explained. “It’s Christmas in the Bistro. We can say that, can’t we? Probably can’t, can we?”<\/p>\n

Podcast co-host Colson Smith, who played Corrie’s Craig Tinker until last year, pointed out: “Well, Lucy [Fallon]’s put a picture on her Instagram today of you in the Bistro!”<\/p>\n

Jack reasoned: “I suppose it doesn’t reveal anything \u2013 it just says that we will be in the set at one point.”<\/p>\n

The stars hinted that Nick will follow tradition by closing the Bistro to host a family Christmas lunch \u2013 although, as is usually the case, the Platts may end up arguing among themselves\u2026<\/p>\n

Ben explained: “Normally Nick closes it, gets in the kitchen himself. Toyah’s on cooking, I’m on decs and table layout. So that’s how we split it. And it’s who’s there \u2013 that’s a classic, isn’t it? We can’t reveal who’s there.”<\/p>\n

Jack warned: “There’s always some drama on Christmas Day\u2026”<\/p>\n

The Jodie Ramsey storyline has recently taken centre stage on Corrie, as her months of lies and manipulation culminated in a shooting at the Platt house last week<\/a>.<\/p>\n

After helping David and Shona to cover up the circumstances behind the incident, Jodie discharged herself from the hospital last night and went AWOL<\/a>.<\/p>\n

However, the schemer will be back at some point \u2013 Olivia Frances Brown, who plays Jodie, recently told Metro<\/a> that her character will have a “bleak” Christmas. Reports have also suggested that she’s signed a new contract<\/a> to stay on Corrie for another year.<\/p>\n

Could it be Jodie who causes problems for the Platts on Christmas Day, or has she learned her lesson?<\/p>\n

Coronation Street airs on weeknights at 8.30pm on ITV1 and streams on ITVX<\/a>.<\/p>\n
