The actor also shared more about what's going on with Ste's house.

"Initially, Fergus (Robert Beck) saved the day by buying the house because Ste had no money – but it's all gone wrong," he explained.

"Fergus is playing this massive game of Monopoly with the village, and he's making his next move."

When asked how worried Ste and the family are about being homeless, Kieron said: "Very! When Ste came back from Newcastle last year, his aim was to turn his life around. But it wasn't plain sailing, especially with Sid."

Asked whether Ste is happy to see his sister Leela again, he revealed: "Well before Leela comes back, there's a big showdown in the village.

"She's on the warpath going after Trish, demanding to know where Fergus is. Then Leela turns up and it's gobsmacked faces all around.

"Even though Leela is back to save the day, she also returns with a secret."
