Torremolinos is a municipality on the Costa del Sol and is west of Malaga. Bet Lynch fled to Torremolinos in August 1987 in a panic after failing to keep up payments to Alec Gilroy. He tracked her down and found her working at Mac's Bar. In August 2008, it was discovered that Jackie Dobbs had also fled here as she owed £1,000 to a thug named Brian.
