Sam Dixon

Sam Dixon is the rich bad boy of the village.

Who is Sam Dixon?
Sam is the richest boy in the village, and is the brother of Bailey Dixon. He is also the cousin of the Ashton brothers Will, Lucas and Matthew.

At first, he didn't like the Ashtons as his Uncle, Harry Ashton, had caused his Auntie's death. This resulted in Sam evicting everyone from the apartments that he had bought, and converting them into one big house for himself.

However, Sam and Will became friends again after Lucas also started working at Dixon Developments.

Unfortunately, Harrison Hunt's return clashed with Will enjoying a pint in the pub. After a hostage situation, he let everybody go, before stabbing Will to death.

Harry was annoyed by the fact that Sam was carrying on as normal, and started to shout at Sam - who accepted it and tried to help Harry the best way he could.

Sam is known to be a good friend of Ali's, after they met at university. This was referenced in a conversation between Harry and Sam, when Harry found out Jamie was safe.

Sam was only introduced as a cameo appearance, but the producers decided to keep both Bailey and Sam as permanent characters.
