 During a party at the community centre , Fatboy smuggles in alcohol and kisses Denise Fox ( Diane Parish ) , angering her husband Lucas ( Don <unk> ) , who throws Fatboy out and begins angrily preaching to him . This causes Fatboy to argue with Mercy . During the argument , Mercy pushes him and he falls onto a tree in the Square 's gardens planted in memory of Lucas 's ex @-@ wife Trina ( Sharon Duncan Brewster ) , snapping it . Fatboy enlists the help of Mercy , Leon and Zsa Zsa to replace it , but as they dig it up , they uncover a dead body , that of Denise 's ex @-@ husband Owen Turner ( Lee Ross ) , who Lucas murdered eight months previously . The next day , Fatboy comforts Mercy and to cheer her up , they play rounders . However , they smash Dot Branning 's ( June Brown ) window and she makes Fatboy fix it . He does a bad job so she insists he pay for a professional , asking Fatboy to wait in her house for the professional to arrive . While he waits , he plays dominoes with Dot 's husband Jim ( John Bardon ) and when Dot returns , she is impressed with Fatboy 's politeness when he offers to clean the new window and make her a cup of tea .
