: devil:

'Coronation Street' horror David Platt fakes his own suicide in a bid to ruin his sister's wedding.

The evil teenager, played by Jack P. Shepherd, will convince everyone he has taken his own life as sister Sarah prepares to tie the knot with lover Jason Grimshaw.

David is already banned from the nuptials after he was responsible for Sarah's daughter Beth accidentally taking an ecstasy tablet and begs his family to let him attend.

However, when they say no, the furious teen plots the ultimate revenge by pretending to be dead.

He writes a suicide note which he leaves in mum Gail's house, leaves a 'final'ranting message on her answer machine and then drives his car into the canal.

During the ceremony, police arrive to tell Gail about the car and she storms out trying to find him.

Jason also tries to go and help with the search but Sarah - who knows about David's scheme - won't let him go until they have signed the marriage register.

Later that evening a wet and bedraggled David arrives back at the Platt household telling a guilt-ridden Gail that he felt he had no choice but to try and take his own life.
