Having a screw loose in Soapland is a crowded field. We\u2019re all still mourning the loss of the delightfully deranged Becky Swain. Who could forget the time she locked Carla Connor (Alison King) in an airing cupboard just so she could seduce her girlfriend Lisa Swain (Vicky Myers)? Classic stuff. Then there\u2019s Mal Roper (Tim Treloar) the Unstable Cable guy, who\u2019s so obsessed with Bernie Winter (Jane Hazelgrove) that he took a job in Weatherfield as an electrician just to stalk her properly.<\/p>\n<p>There\u2019s no doubt about it. If you want to hatch an evil plan on the Cobbles, you\u2019ve got to stand out. Jodie Ramsey certainly puts on a good show.<\/p>\n<p>Ever since she escaped the van of <a data-ico=\"hyperlink-article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tv-soaps\/emmerdale\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Emmerdale<\/a> supervillain Graham Foster (Andrew Scarborough) in the <a data-ico=\"hyperlink-article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/tag\/corriedale\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Corriedale<\/a> crash, this nefarious newcomer has acted all sweetness and light in front of her sister Shona. <\/p>\n<p>The truth is, Jodie blames her sister for running away from their toxic household as a teenager, \u2018abandoning\u2019 her to their abusive father and enabling mother. She\u2019s dedicated to destroying Shona\u2019s life by tearing her family apart\u2026 and keeping the pieces for herself.<\/p>\n<p>\t\t<img width=\"646\" height=\"363\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/14_01_coro_jodie_shona_02-f903.jpg\" class=\"article-image wp-image-26084431\" alt=\"Jodie sitting next to Shona with David the dog on her lap in Corrie\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><br \/>\n\t\tShona is in the dark about her sister\u2019s quest for revenge.(Picture: ITV)<\/p>\n<p>Why does Jodie deserve a place in the Coronation Street\u2019s Bunny Boiler Hall of Fame? Well, first she attended a domestic violence survivors\u2019 group therapy session just so she could spin an accurate sob story to Shona about escaping an abusive partner. She <a data-ico=\"hyperlink-article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2026\/01\/17\/jodie-uses-lily-order-destroy-shona-coronation-street-26305060\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">poured poison about Shona in the ears of her daughter Lily Platt (Grace Ashcroft-Gardiner)<\/a> which was a little crazy. <\/p>\n<p>Then there was the time she pretended to be the mother of Shona and David\u2019s baby Harper in front of a total stranger, which was a lot crazy. Don\u2019t even get me started on that <a data-ico=\"hyperlink-article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2026\/03\/05\/jodie-reels-early-coronation-street-itvx-release-trophy-box-found-27239609\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">creepy box of trinkets<\/a> of hers filled with random stuff she stole from her neighbours.<\/p>\n<p>Lately, Weatherfield\u2019s answer to Glenn Close in Fatal Attraction has been all over the shop evil-scheme wise. Not content with framing Mal Roper for vandalising Bernie Winter\u2019s wedding photo, the maniacal little madam started a <a data-ico=\"hyperlink-article\" href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2026\/03\/02\/jodies-new-victim-confirmed-coronation-street-goes-revenge-27185385\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">secret vendetta against Adam Barlow\u00a0(Sam Robertson)<\/a> merely for demanding she clean up her dog\u2019s poo.

Jodie is amused, which leads to some banter between the pair, which leaves David impressed to realise he\u2019s met his match.<\/p>\n<p>Come on, Shona!
