UHOH.
If you were watching tonight’s episode of Coronation Street, you might have noticed that David Platt used a swear word.
In case you missed it, here’s the gist of the story.
Devastated David is obsessed with getting revenge on Clayton, who stabbed his beloved Kylie to death.
His mother and siblings are growing increasingly worried about him and in tonight’s Corrie, he was locked in the local restaurant’s cellar as they tried to figure out what to do.
Of course, he freaked out when he realised he was trapped and shouted:
“Let me out so I can kill the b******!”
People have taken to Twitter to question why the derogatory slur was used before the 9pm watershed.
I’m surprised #Corrie was allowed that “bastard” before the watershed tonight.

Can they say bastard at 7:45 on a Wednesday night? #Corrie

Can’t believe David Platt just said the word bastard on #Corrie before the watershed as well ?? #CoronationStreet

So @itvcorrie & @emmerdale were a bit crazy tonight, both should’ve been on after the watershed, esp David’s swearing on #Corrie #Emmerdale
