While Carla and Michelle have known about the explosive secret for a few weeks, they’ve kept it from Alya in a bid to find ways to keep the factory.

However, Alya does find out next week, and she has Imran on her side…

Speaking about what viewers can expect, actor Charlie told OK! Online: “The news goes down as well as you might expect. Suffice it to say, it does not go down all too well.

“How would any of us feel to know our inheritance was being slyly and wilfully kept from you by an ex-boss that consistently undermines you, has no respect for you and makes you fetch coffee instead of spearheading fashion lines?”

After discovering the truth about the will and sharing the information with Alya, Imran becomes determined to work out why the Connors tried to hide the truth from Alya in the first place.

Alya, meanwhile, wants to honour the vision she and Aidan shared for the factory.

Charlie adds: “He does and will [find out the truth]. He doesn’t know the Connors well. He’s barely spent time with any one of them bar Kate, but he knows the law and he knows people.

“It’s clear what the Connors are doing and not only is it adversely affecting his friend and sister in law, they’re not playing by the rules and he’ll do what he can to balance the scales.”

He also hinted that the Connors will have problems amongst themselves when Johnny discovers what Carla has been playing at…

Something solicitor Imran will use fully to his advantage.

Rana Nazir’s brother Imran joined the soap permanently at the end of last year, after briefly appearing in her wedding episodes.

His popularity with fans is bound to go sky-high as he fights for what’s right…
