In upcoming EastEnders scenes, Tom ‘Rocky’ Cotton’s (Brian Conley) life is once again on the line, as he clutches his chest and falls after a raging row.
As part of a ruse devised by Dotty Cotton, the conman has spent the past few months impersonating Sonia Fowler’s (Natalie Cassidy) long-lost father (Milly Zero).
When he collapsed many months ago after suffering a heart attack, the stress of keeping such a secret had taken its toll on his health.
Despite his best efforts, Dotty decided she’d had enough of the pretense and disclosed the truth about his betrayal in explosion Christmas day scenes.
Rocky tried to explain himself, but Sonia, who was hurt, was uninterested and disowned him as a result.
Sonia, outraged by recent occurrences, will accept a ticket to the Albert from Martin Fowler (James Bye) in the ensuing scenes. Rocky keeps an eye on the conversation.
Meanwhile, Shirley Carter (Linda Henry) encounters Rocky, who bids her farewell, and she feels awful for him.
But before he leaves, he has a fight with Sonia, Kathy Beale (Gillian Taylforth), and Martin, who all say they’re done with him forever.
Rocky then feels a pain in his chest and collapses to the ground.
Is he going to be okay? Will he make it this time, or will he fail?
