Tina took drastic and sickening action to get Jacob back – by locking a seriously ill patient in an ambulance.

She then lied she was pregnant with Jacob’s baby. In disturbing scenes she tried to manipulate Jacob into taking her back by threatening to put an air bubble into her arm to take her own life.

But when Iain arrived he called her out.

“Have you done manipulating him? Suicide’s not a game Tina. You haven’t got a clue what it’s like to feel like that.”

He was right – and Tina dropped her lies. She turned on Iain and attacked him, picking up a metal pole and beating him.

With her lies and abuse exposed, Tina was arrested and taken away.

Viewers were full of praise for the storyline.

One said: “Casualty deserves the highest of praise for highlighting that abuse has no gender. @Adele_JJames and @ChuckyVenn were both outstanding throughout this storyline.”

A second said: “I was screaming at my TV agreeing with Iain. Had me on the edge of my seat, but top class acting from all to highlight a storyline that needs to be talked about more. Well done all.”

A third said: “Both @ChuckyVenn and @Adele_JJames have both played their parts brilliantly.

“Hopefully Tina will get the help she needs and Jacob will get some support and help to help him come to terms with what has happened.

“Well done to all involved.”
