Jack P Shepherd: Coronation Street star awkwardly gets caught out in undercover move


Coronation Street star Jack P Shepherd, 31, attempted to go undercover in a fancy dress costume to try and surprise a fan, but his plan backfired. Pride of Britain Awards winner and Coronation Street fan Dante Marvin, 11, believed he was helping to pick a charity’s new mascot.

The actor tried to disguise himself as the mascot in a fluffy blue costume which covered his face and body.

At first, Dante said the character was “very tall,” as Jack apologised for being late.

But, when Jack began to speak more to Dante, the latter guessed it was him as he said aloud: “He sounds like Jack Shepherd!”

After the David Platt’s star’s move was uncovered, he unveiled his identity while laughing.

Jack has been a regular cast member of the show since 2000.

In his latest storyline, his character is currently behind bars after being accused of stealing money from his on-screen nan Audrey Roberts (Sue Nicholls).

Nick Tilsley (Ben Price) was the culprit of the crime, however, David ended up taking the blame for it after his brother betrayed him in court.

During his time in prison, the star came face-to-face with Josh Tucker (Ryan Clayton), who previously raped David but isn’t behind bars because of his attack on the hairdresser.

After being beaten up in prison by David’s fellow prisoners, Josh was left severely injured.

But, the latter has since blamed Gail Platt’s (Helen Worth) son for the crime, despite him not being involved.

Coronation Street continues tonight at 8.30pm on ITV.

The Daily Mirror Pride of Britain Awards, in partnership with TSB, will broadcast on ITV tomorrow night at 8pm.
