Where will Roy go from here?
FOR WEEK COMMENCING 8TH APRIL
In the café, Roy answers the phone to receive another volley of abuse and quickly retreats upstairs.
At No.8, as Nick and Shona discuss the dreadful abuse that Roy’s having to deal with, Sam wishes he could pay Roy a visit but Nick doesn’t think it’s a good idea.
Lying to Shona, Sam tells her that he’s going round to see Hope, but calls at the café and suggests to Roy they have a game of chess.
Meanwhile, Nina makes it clear to Evelyn and Shona that despite all the crank calls, they must still answer the phone as Roy is hoping for a call from Lauren’s mother.
After reading through comments online, Stu tells Yasmeen and Alya that he intends to help Roy clear his name as he knows what it’s like to be wrongly accused.
In the precinct, Stu talks to a homeless guy, hoping for information about Lauren and as he pulls out his wallet, he fails to notice the guy picking up a brick.
Returning to Speed Daal with a bloodied face, Stu explains to Yasmeen how he had his wallet stolen and was hit with a brick.
When Evelyn reveals that Hayley’s son, Christian has posted some hurtful things about him and Hayley online, Roy is shocked.
Calling at the café, Kerry introduces herself to Roy and Nina as Lauren’s mum. During the night, Kerry secretly films Roy’s living room and records a commentary making him out to be a murderer. Leaping back onto the sofa, Kerry pretends to be asleep when Roy sleep walks into the room.
After reading the horrible online comments Christian wrote about Roy, Nick and Sam call at the cafe flat where Nick apologises to Roy and assures him that when things are back to normal, he’d be happy for Sam to spend time with him.
When Sam tells Roy that he’s his BFF, best friend forever, Kerry secretly takes note and a shaken Roy heads down to the cafe to explain to Shona and Nina that he’s just had a call from Lauren’s mum asking him not to contact her again.
With all eyes on Alice, she admits she isn’t Kerry and as Roy and Evelyn head out with Freddie, they come face to face with Alice who starts filming them.
As Roy tries to stop her, she stumbles and bangs her head. Accusing him of assault, Alice hurries away. Has Roy got himself into more trouble?
Returning to the café, Dee-Dee breaks the news to Carla, Nina, Shona and Evelyn that Roy has been charged with the murder of Lauren Bolton.
Meanwhile, Roy sits alone in his police cell, his mind completely numb with fear.
