Sarah Platt decided to take drastic measures for her children from her prison cell in the latest episode of Coronation Street in another twist for the soap legend
Sarah Platt decided to take drastic measures for the sake of her children in the latest episode of Coronation Street. The legendary soap character, who has been played by Tina O’Brien since 1999, is currently serving time in prison having been charged with the murder of Theo Silverton.
The factory supervisor has made some sort of friend in fellow inmate Kacey, who has previously tried to use Sarah’s former romance with DC Kit Green (Jacob Roberts) to her own benefit. On the latest episode of the world’s longest-running TV soap, Sarah was horrified to find photographs of her son Harry had been vandalised.
Kacey immediately denied that it was her and quickly turned to the news that some pool balls had been stolen from the recreation room. Just then, Kacey pulled out her phone and found that photos of Harry and another boy had popped up on social media, causing immediate panic. Sarah punched a number into her phone and instructed Harry via voice message to go to Adam Barlow’s house.
Kacey then said: “I don’t want anyone to get hurt. I just need one small favour from your ex. For Harry’s sake, and Bethany’s too.”
All this time, Adam had innocently dropped Harry off at a new friend’s house, and his partner Alya seemed to think nothing of it. Clearly stressed out, Sarah phoned Adam and he explained: “I told you, her name’s Lottie. Her son joined Harry’s holiday club last week.” Sarah demanded Adam go and collect him right now, but Lottie was already dropping Harry off as Alya demanded to know what was going on.
She confirmed she had removed the pictures from social media, and claimed to only vaguely know Kacey but said she had no idea she was behind bars. Adam did not believe her and accused her of posting the photos just so that Kacey would see.
When Adam voiced his concerns to Kit in the pub, he brushed it all off but, back in prison, Sarah was seen loading the stolen pool balls into a sock, ready for action.
Reacting to the dramatic scenes, one fan wrote on X: “Sarah stole the pool balls to make a weapon for self defense. And they do need to watch Harry now more. And I bet Sarah will end up attacking Kacey in tomorrow’s episode.”
Another said: “Poor Sarah Lou [crying emoji],” and a third said: “Good thing Alya and Adam, were jumping into Lottie’s a*** for posting photos of Harry. She can lie but we all know she knows Kacey, and it was to help her mess with Sarah.
A fourth wrote: “Kacey using Harry and Bethany’s names against Sarah, she knows is working cause it does scare Sarah. Makes her fear for their safety.”
Another seemed to be more amused by the fact that Sarah had a phone in her cell that she could use at will as they said: “Sarah has a landline in her cell? Perks of being a murderer.”
