George hasn’t revealed how his character will affect Aaron’s life, but it looks likely that his appearance will relate to the ongoing child sex abuse storyline.
George tells Digital Spy: “Ryan is a lads' lad. He's a local guy who just wants to intervene in people's business. Where he can get what he wants in a certain situation, he will do so.
"We're keeping everything else quiet for now, but people can probably try to use their imaginations.
"It's been really easy to work with the cast.”
George’s character isn’t the only new arrival en route to the village, as Aaron’s half-sister Liv, played by newcomer Isobel Steele will appear in next week’s episodes.
