Teasing what fans can expect from the storyline during a new interview with Inside Soap, Richardson said we're going to hear the name 'Blue' "a lot in the coming weeks".

"They're going to be in quite a lot of people's stories," he added. "Everyone's panicked - Blue is so much bigger than anyone else in the village?"

As for Ste's reaction when he gets out of jail time due to a legal technicality, the actor shared: "It's massively unexpected. It's a shock for him that he gets off, the words the judge uses are that it's an 'unsafe case', so Ste comes out completely bemused and confused at what's going on.
