George – played by Colin Salmon – discovered he had been part of a baby farming scheme, before being left horrified to learn that he witnessed his adoptive dad Eddie kill his birth father in a racist attack when he was a teen.

Earlier this month, Eddie faced trial over the death of George’s real dad, and it put further strain on his relationship with his adoptive mum, Gloria.

It all became too much for Gloria, and she collapsed outside the courtroom, before passing away in hospital with George by her side.

Following her death, Eddie called George from prison and and asked him to meet to discuss Gloria.
