Eye scare!

Adam Barton faces a troubling week when his eye troubles him...

After an emotional break-up with Vic, Adam Barton has been throwing himself into spending time with his mates. But when his eye starts playing up, he turns back to the one person he loves. Here, actor Adam Thomas, 29, tells us more…

What’s wrong with Adam’s eye this week?

He’s with Aaron and he’s finding everything looks a little bit blurry, but he keeps it to himself. Then, it gets worse and worse and he ends up telling Finn, who tells Vic.

Is it going to be a long-term issue?

I hope not! The sooner he gets it seen to the better, hopefully he’ll be all right. Vic drives him to the hospital to get it checked out.

He’s been hanging around with Aaron a lot…

He’s having a bit of boy-time, which is nice for me as well because I’m friends with Danny Miller outside work. Adam doesn’t have any friends in the village so it’s nice, they both need it.

Looking after Pete must be a distraction too?

Yeah, Pete has had a hard time after his wedding and Adam’s been through that as well so he gives him some advice.

Has Adam been missing Victoria?

He loves her and it was a stupid thing he did, kissing Vanessa. He’s been begging Vic to get back with him. Fingers crossed they do.
