The lawyer, as viewers know, has been consumed with grief in the wake of Juliet's (Niamh Blackshaw) death, but things escalated rather dramatically when the McQueens destroyed a memory stick featuring a video of his dear sister intended for him. Despite this being a genuine mistake, James has since waged war on the family, doing everything in his power to have them evicted from their home, all the while desperately trying to get one over on them at every given opportunity. Ste Hay (Kieron Richardson) and Romeo (Owen Warner) have tried to talk sense into him to no avail, with Thursday's (August 10) first look offering of the Channel 4 soap seeing him take his most drastic action to date. Calling in a favour, James asked a mate of his have Bobby Costello (Jayden Fox) transferred to another children's home in Devon, which means that Mercedes can no longer see her son.
