Did anyone see that coming with Jenny? And do we think Peter is going to get back together with Leanne soon?

I think his mum too, I quite like her character though.
Takes me back to watching her in Duty Free (shows age) Grin

ifancyashandy · 03/03/2012 23:10

I think his mum too. We have to care who kills him (so not Jenny) but not care of they get banged up.

Agree about simon - can't stand him. Must admit, I can't help fancying frank (only started watching agains recenty so missed all the carla stuff - last I rememebr it was danny baldwin running the factory Grin
Jenny is wooden and I can;t stand her hair, doensn't go with the (dated) power suit - and who wears lacy tights with a grey suit?
Also, who gets inot a clinch on the sofa still in work jackets?
Why does Lewis wear a coat indoors?

I think the scriptwriters have let women down by allowing a rapist to get away with it. By getting him murdered is a cop out - he's not going to suffer for more tha a few minutes. I am imagining an 'Orient Express' type murder where all the injured parties are gathered round and they all viciously stab him once. Grin

mynameis · 04/03/2012 10:38

I was also Hmm at the lacy tights , think she also had her heels on. Not one for comfort then? Unless it was some dominatrix thing Grin

alemci · 04/03/2012 11:22

you never see any washing anywhere either. Carla has all those lovely clothes yet no airer hanging around the flat.

Yes I agree about the rape thing.

gregssausageroll · 04/03/2012 11:40

It can't be a main character as no one is leaving.

Silverthorns · 04/03/2012 16:59

Thing is re the rape thing- its crap, because Frank gets to escape justice, but I'd say that's fairly representative of how these things go in real life. Unfortunately. Sad

5inthebed · 04/03/2012 17:02

Who honestly opens a sopa thread and doesn't expect to read spoilers?

Anyway, definitely think it will be Franks mum.

Its hardly spoilers, we are hypothesising. Everyone knows that Frank is going to be murdered, its on the front cover of every telly mag FFS!

On ITV today they are showing a trailer with all the spurned people saying nasty things about him then showing him dead on the floor. Tomorrow at 7.30!

5inthebed · 04/03/2012 19:36

Annoys the hell out of me when people come on threads like this and goes "OH NO!!! YOU'VE PUT A SPOILER". It's TV, it's a soap, not real life, you're world will not end if you know a story line in advance.

Is it tomorrow night? Must must must remember to watch it, have been watching Friends reruns the past few weeks.

mynameis · 04/03/2012 19:38

Frank Dies? What? Totally spoilt it for me now Grin

70isaLimitNotaTarget · 04/03/2012 19:39

Wasn't there a storyline in the offing that he was going to attack Sally Webster?

If he gets killed tomorrow then he'd have to attack Sally tomorrow?
In which case it could be Sally or Kevin.

Or a complete wildcard to keep us guessing?

Hopes it's Rosie who gets locked up avenges the crime against her mother.

mynameis · 04/03/2012 19:42

I saw that about Sally too, also that his Dad would come forward in the court case to say Frank had raped other women.

chocolateshoes · 04/03/2012 19:44

isn't his Dad dead though??

5inthebed · 04/03/2012 19:46

Yeah his dad is dead.

I'm not sure, but perhaps they changed the storyline re Frank raping Sally. I felt there was no need for that to be a storyline.

Bossybritches22 · 04/03/2012 20:03

Mynameis Franks father died on holiday recently, can't be him!

So in the frame are;

Carla- raped & had business tricked away from her.

Peter- 'cos in his cups he has a hero moment for Carla's attack.

Sally- made a right fool of herself both personally and in work, alienated half the street over her siding with a rapist, then sleeping with him.

Ann- because he made her a fool for standing by him & the stress of his case killed his Dad.

Kev- because he's a twat who defends Sally any time & the only way he knows is with his fists, oh & he had a monkey wrench in them at the time Grin

Jenny- because she believevd his shite & maybe he rapes her or she catches him attacking Sally?

My money's on Sally. Grin

mynameis · 04/03/2012 20:03

Yes sorry meant to say read that before his dad died Blush

JiltedJohnsJulie · 04/03/2012 20:07

Don't normally like spoilers but knew he was going to be murdered as I saw him interview last week, now I can't wait for tomorrow night

Thanks for the list too Bossy Wine

Bossybritches22 · 04/03/2012 20:11

JJJ welcome- spot the corrie addict ! Grin

Housemum · 04/03/2012 22:04

Couldn't Tyrone's psycho girlfriend please murder Frank and be caught, no motive but I'd love her to be out of the series...

Ann is a bit of a control freak about her precious son, so my money would be on her losing it as he's not what she thought he was.

LeeCoakley · 04/03/2012 22:08

Tyrone's girlfriend could have had some sort of 'past' with Frank and murders him. I can't stand her.

And I don't like Tracey's housemate, maybe she has a past with Frank and her AND Tyrone's girlfriend murder him together Grin

EdinburghRocks · 05/03/2012 12:56

Won't he have to attack Sally though so that she at least can realise how fooled she's been into believing him? I really think its his mother.
