Coronation Street's Jodie Ramsey, played by Olivia Frances-Brown, has a complicated past that includes working as a nanny. Despite her history, she was not sent to prison after assaulting Sarah Platt, instead receiving community service. This might raise concerns if a background check, such as a DBS check (a process used in the UK to vet people for roles involving children or vulnerable individuals), were conducted, but she has avoided such scrutiny so far. Jodie has also been keeping a gun in the same house as her teenage niece, Lily Platt, portrayed by Grace Ashcroft Gardner. Shona Platt, played by Julia Goulding, and her husband David, played by Jack P Shepherd, have allowed Jodie to be around their children, despite her troubled past. This decision seems to be influenced by their emotional stress over their premature baby, Harper. Shona, in particular, lets Jodie act as a caring aunt, even though she secretly wants revenge against her half-sister for abandoning her in childhood. Jodie is known for acting impulsively and without regard for others, including children. She once stole an iPad from a child by pretending to be a police officer to give it to Lily. She has also been cruel to Lucy Parkinson, a traumatized teenager who had a recent argument with Lily after losing her parents. Jodie's current focus is on Kit Green, played by Jacob Roberts, who was recently released from jail by Sarah Platt. Despite warnings from Bethany Platt, played by Lucy Fallon, Kit has been influenced by Jodie. However, in the upcoming episode, Kit listens to the warnings and visits the local pub, the Cobbles, which is expected to create tension with Jodie. Meanwhile, Shona is emotional as David returns home. During lunch, David reassures Shona that she is a great mother and that they will share parenting responsibilities moving forward. After receiving a voice message from Kit saying he no longer wants to see her, Jodie hides her anger and leaves. This situation is expected to escalate further. Later, Jodie breaks into Sarah's flat but is interrupted by Kit and Bethany's arrival, forcing her to hide. While hiding, she notices Harry Platt's height chart on the wall. In a spiteful move, she alters the chart to make Harry appear shorter, adding to his struggles after his mother's imprisonment for murder. After tampering with the chart, Jodie overhears a conversation between Kit and Bethany that leaves her "floored."
