Now, Derek Milligan could be in serious danger as he plans to double-cross Gary – not realising what the man is capable of.
In scenes due to air on December 6, Derek calls by the furniture shop to ask Gary for £3,000, but Gary only hands over a fraction of that amount and orders Derek to leave.
Later, Derek goes behind Gary’s back and secretly meets up with Nick and Sarah, who agree to buy the factory from him.
Derek is clearly hoping to make a profit before fleeing Weatherfield, but Gary’s suspicions are aroused when he bumps into Nick and Sarah at the Bistro…

Will Derek get away with scamming Gary out of the factory by selling it to Nick and Sarah?
Corrie viewers have watched Gary – played by Mikey North – get involved in some dodgy dealings in recent months.
The builder has been operating as a loan shark after murdering villain Rick, and then found a safe full of money in a storage unit belonging to his murder victim.
Gary has been rebuilding Underworld with the money, but has been keeping his funds a secret by using his stooge Derek as a cover…
Gary has been claiming Derek is a rich businessman who has invested in the factory, even though he is actually one of Rick’s clients.
But, in September, Gary was furious to discover that Derek had been signing contracts and agreeing rent reductions in his absence.
