Corrie spoiler: David helps save Gail's bacon shocker

We're so used to David being such a rotten son that news of him helping his (admittedly annoying) Mum Gail off the hook comes as something as a shock. But that's exactly what Irish website RTE is reporting today.

Apparently David, played by Jack Shepherd, destroys evidence incriminating his mum Gail in Joe McIntyre's death. As reported in Corrieblog a couple of weeks ago, Joe McIntyre played by Reece Dinsdale, dies after a plot to get insurance money by faking his own death in a boat accident goes horribly wrong.

Gail (Helen Worth) is the prime suspect when his body is found with her nail scratches on his face. She also took out a life insurance policy on him two weeks before his death. After realising his phone has texts that could make it look like Gail killed her hubby, David throws his phone into a canal in a bid to stop his Mum going to jail.
