Presumably this ties into Dots cancer storyline. Maybe he'll show to try and make things up to his "ma".
I always thought that both Nick Cotton and the Terry Duckworth (was that his name) basically became pantomime villains over time. Although Nicks last appearance, where he left after causing his sons death was pretty good.
Re: Nasty Nick Returns to EE!
Dont get me wrong i am a big fan of EE, (well not so much at the moment) but this is a stupid idea.
He was an awfull actor, cant stand Nick Cotton, i think they should sack the EE producer.
He had a fight with Mark, then sabotaged Marks motorbike to get back at him. But his son, Ashley, stole the bike and it crashed as a result of what Nick did. Was a pretty storyline and the crash was well done, if I remember correctly.
He left after confessing his role in his sons death to Dot, and it was made pretty clear she was completely fed up of him at this stage. So they're going to have to come up with a pretty good reason to have him stick around.
