A lot of things happened including threats to
throw him off a bulding and Pete getting a mob
to deal with him. He tried to buy flats from Phil
& Grant and set up a business.
Kept telling Kathy he was sorry but wanting to
restart their special relationship. He signed
a paper to say he would leave Walford but reneged.
Eventually he did make s believable apology and
left Walford. It might have been threat to throw
him off building that changed his mind.
It was a bit jumbled and some repititions to me.
Some time after he left- a character met his
ex-wife and was told he had commited another
rape and was in prison again.Never mentioned
again.
Basically he was in denial right up to the end.
