agree seems so out of character for claire and Neil to help to Tommy considering what he did to Catherine in s1 and Ryan in s2

Aah you can't beat an over egged TV thread. Some of the theories on The Missing thread some years ago were brilliant.

oh yes the missing threads were legend !!

duc748 · 22/01/2023 14:25

That's one of the good things about appointment TV. Years ago, I remember great threads in Another Place on Survivors (featuring The Beez), I'm sure MN covered that too. And LOD, of course.

CorporateBull · 22/01/2023 14:28

Well, I said agree to disagree and I meant it! But I do think that the things that have been posted about why the rape might not have happened are things that get said more widely about rape too. My own final words.

As well as TLR/CC/Ryan we have the other plots with Faisal and Jo and her husband to keep us entertained this evening.🙄

sweatervest · 22/01/2023 15:12

Also I saw a photo of TLR getting his hair cut. Which isn't entirely pivotal in plotland but it's all I have to contribute tbh.
Also nothing but I can't wait for ce soir.

I think we've all forgotten about near dead Jo and Faisal 🤣

JaneJeffer · 22/01/2023 16:02

I think Faisal will be happy about that @PrincessScarlett Grin

Threadkillacilla · 22/01/2023 16:10

I haven't seen any trailers for todays ep.

WBDogCatMouse · 22/01/2023 16:19

I think the revenge thing Ryan was on about will come into it at some point.

But I think it's Catherine he wants revenge on. TLR has some how convinced him Catherine's the bad guy, remembering Claire doesn't go into the prison with him, it's just Neil. Neil is nieve and easily led, plus possibly feels slighted by Catherine to thanks to the pub thing in S2.

Towntroubadour · 22/01/2023 16:55

I wonder if Ryan will kill TLR and Catherine will help him hide the body or take the blame.

For anyone asking about the cardigan James is wearing on Graham Norton, it’s from Hermes as he’s tagged them on his Instagram.

sweatervest · 22/01/2023 17:29

@towntroubadour thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i was hoping it was an ex boohoo :O( !!!!!!!

I can completely understand why people are getting upset, it’s a sensitive topic and as a SA victim myself I sometimes do struggle a lot with programmes about it.

However I don’t take issue with people discussing Becky on this thread. Nobody’s saying she lied or that TLR isn’t capable of it. We’re all intelligent adults and can see that TLR is a monster, nobody is blinded just because he’s conventionally good looking and I think it’s offensive to suggest otherwise.

The question isn’t “Did Becky lie?” or “Did TLR actually rape Becky?”. The question is “Has Cathy put two and two together and made ten when it comes to Becky’s suicide?”. Even if Cathy has made up her own story and stuck to it, it doesn’t necessarily mean Becky wasn’t raped but there could be even more to the story than than that Catherine isn’t acknowledging. What that is? I don’t know, that’s up to Sally Wainwright but I expect a reveal that Catherine made a mistake or upset Becky somehow, (perhaps forcing the baby on her and trying to get her to bond?) and that Catherine didn’t deal with the situation as well as she could of, and Catherine has gone into denial about it.

One thing I’m intrigued about is how Becky felt towards the baby as that’s not ever been explored and I think that in itself would provide a lot of context. Was she caring for him in those 6 weeks, did she bond with him or have any maternal feelings for him? Or could she not look at him and Catherine was doing all of the care?

I'm here for not overthinking- TLR is a rapist lowlife, everyone is exactly as we know them to be. Alison's clutch will be important, and we'll want to cheer when it is. Catherine will get to drive off with Ryan in her landy. Pfizer is a gonner. Something is important re the "phantom fridge thrower".

Emotionalsupportviper · 22/01/2023 18:41

Agree with @fairypeasant , and will add that Joyce knows something significant about someone.

Yeah this is what I think. I also suspect that Ryan may have to choose between Catherine and Tommy for some reason.

storminabuttercup · 22/01/2023 19:20

Pfizer is in this series what the accountant was in series one and the detective in series two, desperate man doing something really stupid. He will be caught.
Annie will be working on the case now she's in CID.

TokyoSushi · 22/01/2023 19:43

I think Ryan will have to choirs between Catherine & Tommy, and he'll choose Catherine.

Greatly · 22/01/2023 19:44

Faisal. Not Pfizer.

alchemies · 22/01/2023 19:45

Pfizer is his nickname, cos he's a pharmacist and sounds a bit like Faisal
