Liam decides to get his own back on Mick, who recently covered him with cement at the builder’s yard. He laces Mick’s tea with washing powder, leaving the villain disgusted.

Mick doesn’t take Liam’s retaliation well, so he ups the ante by locking the teenager in the tool shed at the yard.

Maria is horrified when Liam tells her that Mick locked him in the tool shed. The tit-for-tat antics continue as Gary then locks Mick in the shed to give him a taste of his own medicine.

Mick is livid as Gary fires him, so he bides his time before punching his former boss. Gary grabs an empty bottle and prepares to go on the attack, but Kit intervenes and warns him to back off.

As Bernie visits Kit’s flat and urges him to open up about what’s troubling him, some special flashback scenes put viewers in the picture. Three newcomers have been cast as younger versions of Kit, Mick and Lou, who all knew each other when they were teenagers.

The specially-filmed scenes, set in 2007, show Kit finding himself on the wrong side of the law when he was younger. We see the secrets that still bind them together and why Kit has been behaving so strangely around Mick.

Maria clashes with Lou over Mick’s behaviour, then unites with Gary to accuse Kit of corruption as he keeps letting Mick off with his bad behaviour.

Kit protests that Gary was the one to blame, as he was armed with a bottle when he was clashing with Mick.

Bernie isn’t easily convinced and continues to push Kit, wanting to know why he’s covering for Mick.

Later in the week, Debbie heads to the Bistro for lunch with Abi. They both order soft drinks, but when Debbie sees Ronnie arrive, she struggles and switches to vodka instead.

Debbie soon becomes drunk and Abi decides that it’s a good idea to call Carl for help. Just as Carl arrives, Debbie tells Abi that she’s had some bad news.

Kit approaches Eileen and George, confirming that Julie’s autopsy proves that she did have Eileen’s painkillers in her system when she died.
