DAVID Platt is stunned as someone buys his house from under him as he and Tracy launch a bidding war next week in Coronation Street.
The hairdresser – who is played by actor Jack P Shepherd in the ITV soap – was evicted from his home by Ray Crosby when the property developer won approval for his new scheme at the end of last year.

Corrie viewers know that David and Shona have been trying to win the house back following evil Ray’s downfall at the hands of his business partner Debbie.
But next week viewers will see David and Shona despair after failing to secure a mortgage.
Meanwhile, Steve returns from the Peak District and is shocked to learn that Tracy intends to buy David’s house.
Shona approaches Audrey and asks her if she can lend them the money, but Audrey reminds her of the time David stole from her.
A desperate Shona takes matters into her own hands and sabotages the WiFi in both their houses as Tracy and David start a furious bidding war on their laptops for the house.
Tracy is furious when Steve forces her to stop when the bidding reaches £138k and slams her laptop down, convinced David has won.
But both Tracy and David are stunned when they discover someone else has joined the bidding – and that the final bid was placed by an unknown bidder.
Who is the mystery person?
Corrie viewers are certain that David’s mum Gail will be the one to buy back her house – which she bought originally in 1991 – after she received the awful news that her dad Ted has passed away.
Fans are convinced Gail will use the inheritance money to snap up the house right from under David’s nose.
Could it be Gail – or is someone more sinister behind the purchase?
Viewers will have to tune in to find out.
