He doesn't 'alf clean up well. Slug, that is... or I guess I should be calling him Neil. Slug was Becky's boyfriend and partner in crime a few years ago but when they got drunk and she was persuaded to help him nick Roy and Hayley's car and then stranded her out on the road, she finally dumped him. She'd disappointed the Croppers after everything they'd done for her and they were more important to her than her greasy druggie boyfriend."Slug" was a good name for him back then too, he really was creepy and disgusting. Well, now Slug seems to have cleaned himself up, pulled his act together, got a job and is working towards being respectable. Has he really changed? Maybe... but the spoilers say he's going to be blackmailed by that corrupt and bitter cop, Cst. Hooch (with a name like that, could he be any other sort?) and it's going to cause havoc for Becky again.
What I want to know is, is this turnaround of his life genuine and down the road, Hooch just drags him down again into his scheme to get revenge on Becky, or has that revenge scheme already started and this whole "clean up" routine is a scam as well? I'm going with the latter. Watch this spot.
