But Sid has been secretly gathering evidence against Victor in an attempt to secure his downfall – and destroy the county lines operation once and for all. 

In order to do this viewers have watched Sid go to great lengths to earn Victor’s trust.

But the teen’s plan to get into Victor’s good books will put him in an awful situation in upcoming scenes.

Tonight’s episode (January 29) will see Victor order Sid to batter Ollie as revenge for refusing to pay for the drugs he took.

Will Sid be able to go ahead with the beating to keep Victor on side?

Actor Billy revealed to Digital Spy: “Sid is told to beat up Ollie. Ollie is refusing to pay for some drugs that he got from Sid, so now Victor is out of pocket.

“Victor wants Sid to teach him a lesson and prove what he can do. I don’t think that Sid likes Ollie – that boy has done him dirty plenty of times – but Sid’s not a violent, horrible person and he doesn’t want to do it.”

Speaking about whether Sid will manage to secure Victor’s downfall, Billy added: “Sid owes everyone that he’s got involved in this County Lines operation to stop it once and for all. The only reason County Lines has polluted the village is because Jordan was his cousin and he wouldn’t have been there if it wasn’t for Sid.

“He feels like he’s caused it and he’s got to clean up his own mess. He wants to be the one to end it all for his own sake, to say: ‘I caused this for everyone, but I fixed it’.”

Sid got a wake up call about the dangers of drugs last year as his involvement in the county lines operation took a nasty turn – and left him with a life-changing injury. 

After realising his former girlfriend Juliet had slept with Ollie Morgan, the heartbroken teenager drown his sorrows by taking a dangerous amount of ketamine.

Disaster then struck as a heartbroken Sid stumbled through the village completely unaware of his surroundings – and Peri ran him over while distracted by her phone.

Ste then broke the news in hospital to a terrified Sid that his leg couldn’t be saved after the accident and that doctors would have to amputate it.
