Eric Pollard sinks to a new low next week by mocking Liv’s alcoholism[/caption]

Viewers know Aaron was actually returning a broach stolen by Mackenzie Boyd, but Eric had no idea.

He caught Aaron and attacked him with a cricket bat.

It has led Eric to believe that Aaron was putting the broach back for his grandmother Faith – Eric’s ex – and sparked a huge feud between the Dingles and Eric.

Now next week Eric will stoop to a new low and mock Aaron’s sister Liv’s battle with her alcoholism.

She recently fell off the wagon after a traumatic experience – but Eric doesn’t care.

In a spoiler clip from the soap, he is told of what’s happening to Liv and decides to mock her.

“Another one off the rails, eh?” he said to Aaron’s mum Chas.

“I’d have a drink problem if I lived with Aaron. Oh yes of course, I’d forgotten – you lot lie about everything. 

“I can’t go home. I won’t feel safe in there until her thug of a son is locked up.”

“He was on my property, he got what he deserved.”

As the police pulled up and asked what was going on, Eric claimed Chas was “harbouring a dangerous criminal”.

But Eric was in for a shock when the officer revealed he was there to see him – and was ready to arrest him.
