And he wasted no time in making his mark by having an impromptu run in with his sister in law Abi Webster – and flirting shamelessly.
At first Abi punched him, but Carl won her over with some flirting and while he offered her an afternoon of carnal pleasure, she declined and returned home to her cancer-stricken husband Kevin.
The pair were both left shocked when later that day they met officially – but both quickly covered up and pretended it was their first meeting.
It was clear that Abi had been very tempted by Carl, and even with his brother’s cancer, Carl made no secret of his desires for Abi.

The Sun exclusively revealed that Carl and Abi are set to have a passionate affair but it’s not the first saucy storyline actor Jonathan has been in.
Having worked in Hollywood for the last decade, he’s starred in a string of shows – frequently without many clothes.
And he even shared a passionate snog with a popstar A-lister in one role.
In the drama series Kingdom, Jonathan played Nick Jonas’ love interest – and they had a snog.
He also bravely bared all in a SyFy drama Dominion in a raunchy group shower scene.
Jonathan played a soldier fighting against an army of angels in the supernatural thriller – and after one battle he hopped in the shower with his male and female colleagues.
Stripping off with co-stars Christopher Egan and Kim Engelbrecht, the scenes make Corrie look like a chaste drama.
On Carl’s antics with the ladies Jonathan, who is married to Hollywood star Elodie Yung, said: “He’s maybe a little bit selfish, especially between his trousers sometimes!”
