"very upsetting" Masoods storyline ahead

Nitin who plays Masood Ahmed has hinted at a "very upsetting" storyline for the Masoods. He also said the story was "sad - but full of heart".

"We're building up to something big that will be on screen in a couple of months' time. It's the first time I've ever got weepy reading a script and it gives me goose pimples just talking about it," he told Radio Times.

"It's a very upsetting storyline. Really sad - but full of heart."

He stated that the storyline will kick off in the run up to Shabam and Kush's wedding. 

He said: "It's going to be a fun build-up to the wedding. There are rumours of Carmel and Masood getting it on and there's a lot of comedy. And then we're going to pull the rug out from under you.

"The aftermath of this will run all the way up to Christmas and I'm really excited at the thought of flexing my acting muscles."
