Jack P. Shepherd can't wait for his 'Coronation Street' character to get back to his evil tricks.

The 20-year-old actor - who plays David Platt in the soap - is looking forward to reformed David, who has recently left prison, returning to his evil side.

He said: "I definitely want David to be evil again. I love playing that side of him. The badder he is, the better it is for me! New scripts are ready at the moment but I don't know what's in them. I really hope he goes back to his old tricks."

However, Jack has also revealed David has a much better outlook on life since leaving the jail.

He added: "He is relieved to be out of prison. Being cooped up with people he didn't like was a lot worse than being at home. He really did think he deserved to be punished. Now he believes he can make a fresh start.

"He is a lot calmer than before as well. He wants to continue in hairdressing and make a stab at carving out a career for himself."
