I have had the absolute and total pleasure of goofing about with this dreamboat all day.

The solicitor was last seen in January at Sally Metcalfe’s fraud trial release before refusing to help her family appeal the conviction despite Sally’s innocence.
Tristan Gemmill let the cat out of the bag earlier this week about the shock return.
He tweeted the news of Paula’s comeback and hinted she would be helping his character Robert Preston with some legal trouble.
“Finally had a scene with @wirlygallacher today!” he wrote on the social network.
“The Gloucestershire Posse is stealthily taking over @itvcorrie!!”
Robert is one of the official suspects for the Underworld factory collapse after publicly vowing to destroy Carla Connor for ruining his relationship with Michelle Connor.
Could he hire Paula as his solicitor to help him escape from a prison sentence?
She didn’t exactly have the best track record helping Sally who would still be languishing in prison if the family had taken her legal advice.
Or could Robert be in a messy legal battle over the Bistro with ex Michelle Connor?
