asualty star Milo Clarke has confirmed

a devastating storyline for his character

Teddy Gowan, who will be sexually assaulted while at work.

The much-loved character arrived in 2021

and works as a paramedic alongside his Auntie Jan (Di Botcher), Iain (Mike Stevenson) and Jacob (Charles Venn).

In the three years we’ve known Teddy, he’s been established as a kind, caring young man who absolutely loves his job. He is great friends with Jacob and Iain and is also spending a lot of time with Jodie (Anna Chell), but Teddy’s relationships will be tested over the next few weeks, as he finds himself on a downward spiral after being attacked.

Discussing the start of this ordeal, actor Milo Clarke told Metro.co.uk: ‘Teddy and Iain go to a shout at a hen party. Hayley, who wants to be the ring leader…you get the impression that she would cause a bit of trouble if there was going to be any. It’s a shift where they deal with the group and then a little bit later on, Teddy and Iain see them again. Because Hayley is adamant there’s nothing wrong with her and that she’s just a bit drunk, there isn’t really anything Iain and Teddy can do at first.
