Robert has just started a life sentence for murdering rapist Lee Posner and is not eligible for parole for 14 years. Aaron is already struggling without his other half and can't bring himself to imagine a life without him, but a cruel twist is about to hit the beloved boys.

Friday's episode is visiting day at the nick, but as Aaron sits across from Rob he has no idea that the inmate has just learnt he is being transferred to a jail on the Isle of Wight, making contact between the couple virtually impossible unless Mr Dingle leaves the village.

Deciding not to tell Aaron the truth to protect him from the inevitable hurt, Robert prepares to say a final farewell with his hubby oblivious to the fact this could be the last time they see each other…

Will Robert really keep Aaron in the dark before he's moved? How will the rest of Rob's family react to the news? And will Robron fans ever recover from what promises to be an emotionally epic scene?
