Yes, Kate had a husband and. child at the end of series 1 but we didn't see much of them, assume she left to go into a hotel....after being confronted at home..I thought she was crying after her interview with Richard Akers and the realisation of how he and his wife had deceived over the money???? and the enormity of their deception in the affair. Cotton was tied up with Tommy in series 1.
here are my questions!
Who wrote the note We Know in prison?
did her mum really have a stroke naturally or was she threatened and had one as a result?
what happened to those evil original warders?
When Denton was in the van she pressed the communication intercom to speak at the exact time the van was rammed. did she know?
The vice squad coppers at the end are tied up with Carly's death. she was very much alive at the party. Did Dryden kill her or was he involved? he is very guilty about something. Why did he get rid of Liz White character, his original press advisor? thought the Chief Constable couldn't have looked less interested if he'd tried......
It is brilliant, as now Steve's boss can't dig into Dryden openly as has threat of losing his job and had promised his wife a cruise..everyone has a price and can be bought....
ps don't really see Steve as a tragic figure, just a decent copper who plays the field as a single man.
