Vinny’s ordeal has taken him right back to when he was attacked by his own father Paul Ashdale. Horrified, Vinny has never forgot those moments and it’s clear what happened with Mike yesterday has brought it all back.
Next week, Vinny is visited by the police who want to know if he knows someone called Graham, who also goes by the name of Mike. Vinny – who has paid for Mike’s silence – now finds himself in a tough spot as the police are investigating for extortion.
Will Vinny be able to tell Gabby the truth about Mike and how they really met – and his own confusion about his sexuality. Or will he keep the truth from his wife to be once again?
Speaking about the tough scenes, Bradley explained: “All of a sudden we see this sort of shift in [Mike’s] body language and his attitude. He starts saying some really horrible, hurtful stuff to Vinny, and Vinny’s like, ‘Whoa, what’s going on here?’
“He beats Vinny up. It’s a horrendous beating and Vinny’s on the floor and he’s having flashbacks to everything that happened with him and Paul [Vinny’s abusive late father].”
He added: “Mike demands that he send him £10K or else he’ll expose his secret to Gabby. And what I think is so cruel that Mike’s done, he’s secretly recorded Vinny on every meeting. When Vinny’s on the floor, scared, vulnerable, he plays this recording back to him, and we just see Vinny’s world completely collapse.”
