Harvey has some hard words for fire starter Rocky (Picture: BBC / Jack Barnes / Kieron McCarron)
Rocky Cotton (Brian Conley) faces the wrath of Harvey Monroe (Ross Boatman) in EastEnders after word of Kathy Beale’s (Gillian Taylforth) arrest filters through the Square.
The con-man, as viewers know, is battling a serious gambling addiction and is in debt to sinister Nish Panesar (Navin Chowhdry), which prompted him to take shocking action last week.
In a bid to get his hands on the funds necessary to pay off his debts, he decided to set wife Kathy’s beloved eponymous cafe alight, hoping to claim on the insurance.
Harvey knew of his mate’s plan and urged him to reconsider, but a desperate Rocky followed through, with horrifying consequences ensuing after Bobby Beale (Clay Milner Russell) stumbled upon the blaze.
Using a fire extinguisher, Bobby managed to put out the flames, but a devastating accident led to an explosion ripping through the cafe, with both Rocky and Peter (Thomas Law) subsequently entering the premises to retrieve unconscious Bobby.
More tragedy struck, with the pair becoming stranded by falling debris, with the fire fighters later coming to their aid, getting all three injured parties to hospital.
