Here we go

Yes I actually said "oh god don't laugh at him!" I thought there was a chance TLR would slit his neck with the whisky bottle

And TLR beating Catherine in series 1 - that was horrendous. We've clearly been shown how violent TLR can be as well as it also being alluded to with Becky.

I honestly thought Tommy was going to bash Darius when he laughed ! The way JN can change from almost childlike niceness/ excitement to cold eyes and menacing is what makes him TLR for me.
The writing is sublime , look how she's shown us his vulnerability so we actually , all decent people are feeling empathy towards him even though we know all what he's done and is capable of! We've even had people questioning if neckbeard was the abused one and feeling sorry for murderer Pfizer ( I know it's Faisal but keeping in with the nickname here )
Catherine has nobody , not one single person has her back , she can't go to anyone to take the strain off for her .. she's carried everyone since Becky died and I think she's st the point of f**k it all.
Darius helping Tommy is confusing me , Tommy is a liability and I think Darius is more than aware of that but the shitty safe house , no phone and telling Tommy not to contact him is all a bit wierd.
As for gaming , this is how weirdos groom children aswell , I hope more people are now aware how easy it is to talk to anyone online through any Wi-Fi access

Nonsense - you've just forgotten TLR's violence.

Well I still think the strangulation scene was the most disturbing.

I think for me it was Kirsten's death , the way he kept reversing etc to drive over her

The bumping 😱

It was horrific and the bleeping of her radio

I don't think I'll ever forget Royce three point turning over Kirsten's body. He is repulsive and I could barely watch that final scene with Ryan.

Kristen's death was just awful, how Catherine pulled up and saw the flashing blue lights and Kristen just lying there 😭

'I can't decide whether Darius sprung TLR out of jail with the genuine intention of getting him out of the country but won't risk him being recaptured so will kill him if he thinks that's likely, or if he always intended to kill him'

Yes and by the pantomime villain hard stare on Darius' face as Royce left the vehicle you do get the feeling that a villa in Marbs has never been on the cards.

I feel sorry for him which is mad as he's a murderous rapist. Norton's acting in this really is brilliant.

Perhaps they'll have some kind of liaison officer and protection at Nev's by next week.

I have forgotten what happened in Season 2! How did TLR's mum die; was she murdered by the serial killer?

if she was a bloke we'd all be saying whadda great guy
I wouldn't. Yes she's good at her job but she's so cold to her family.

I googled Ryan and Tommy to see if they really did look similar and this came up - really touching:

www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-11636341/One-big-Happy-Valley-family-James-Norton-not-closer-Ryan-Connah.html

Yes, murdered by the serial killer from the farm

Yes TLR's mum was murdered by Alison's son.

'I can't decide whether Darius sprung TLR out of jail with the genuine intention of getting him out of the country but won't risk him being recaptured so will kill him if he thinks that's likely, or if he always intended to kill him'

I think Darius would shoot TLR himself rather than risk TLR trying to murder a police officer; and risk being caught; spilling the beans on Darius's involvement in the prison break and reservoir murder

Darius is too ambitious to let a disposable psycho get in the way of his plans.

I thought it was completely deserved.

I've got no time for Claire.

Mind if I join in? I knew there'd be a thread on this 😊

Anyone else catch TLR saying TELEPHOME to borscht man?

Can't wait for next week's episode!

Thank you for this, lovely story :)

If I found out my sister did that is never speak to her again I'd be so angry. It was deserved!

Apologies for the Pfizer/Faisal pedantry I didn't realise it was an established nickname. Good one!

Even if Claire genuinely felt that Ryan should be allowed contact with TLR; it was never her call to make. The most she should have done is try to share Ryans POV with Catherine; and suggest perhaps that a social worker takes Ryan

Agreed. I would never speak to her again.
