Rocky Cotton's relationship with Kathy Beale has been going downhill ever since he was exposed for his bigamy and gambling addiction. His financial woes only worsened when his ex-wife Jo demanded a payment of £50,000 in exchange for her silence.
In a bid to get this money back, Rocky resorted to desperate measures. He set fire to Kathy's cafe, unaware that Bobby and Peter Beale were both in the building. When the police questioned him after the incident, Rocky lied and told them that he was attempting to fix the electrics, which had unintentionally started the fire.
Unfortunately for Rocky, this invalidated the insurance claim and he was worse off than he had started. When Kathy found out about the truth, she was heartbroken and furious. She kicked Rocky out of her life and he was left with nowhere to sleep.
Fortunately, Sonia Fowler offered him a place to sleep, but she was far from pleased with his antics. She made it clear that she didn't want anything to do with a 'filthy arsonist' and Rocky's family were equally disgusted.
Will Rocky ever get back in favour with his family, or it this lie too many? Join the Metro Soaps WhatsApp community to get access to spoiler galleries, must-watch videos and exclusive interviews and find out for yourself!
