Mick's DESPAIR

At rock bottom, he calls the woman who abused him, former care worker Katy…

Mick has experienced many lows during his time in Walford – Linda’s rape, her battle with alcohol and his wrongful imprisonment for attempted murder being a few of the sad chapters in Carter family history.

Now, there’s a new crisis to get his nut round, harking back to the time when he was a kid in care. Newcomer Frankie believes she’s the product of her careworker mum Katy sexually abusing Mick when he was 12 years old. But Katy has told Mick that nothing happened between them, making him question his memories and doubt his sanity.
