David tells Clayton to keep away from Shona, but Clayton loves seeing David miserable and makes it clear he’ll be staying in contact with his mum.
Although fans of the show know exactly what Clayton is like, they want him to be a regular.
One tweeted: “If Tracy Barlow, the murderer, can be a regular on the street then why can’t Clayton?”
Another tweeted an excited gif which said: “Yes!”
A third fan also appeared excited for the character’s return and begged for it to be permanent.

Shona was shot on Christmas Day and she went into a coma.
When she woke up, the only person she could remember was Clayton.
With Shona refusing to see David, it means Clayton has been able to fill her head with all sorts of misinformation.
Will she ever remember David and her life with him?
