Would Gail ever, I mean EVER, turn down a marriage proposal? Even if it was from some strange bloke meandering by? Not likely.
To be fair, Gail was not enthusiastic about remarrying Brian. She also resisted the idea of marrying Martin for a long time. Pregnant with David, she chose a termination, until Martin persuaded her otherwise. In the late 80s, the writers sought to make Gail a strong, independent woman, co-owner of the cafe business with Alma, and at the centre of feminist storylines that explored her ambivalence toward a conventional female role, much to mother-in-law Ivy's distress.
I am finding Michael Rodwell more and more idiotic. Why is the twerp even doling out advice anyway. Will someone please dob Tracy into the police that she is fencing and selling stolen goods as she must be out on licence. Back to jail with her.
no Frosty. Her conviction was quashed. "A miscarriage of justice" as Tracyluv is quick to tell people. Conveniently, the Police and prosecutors elected not to go for a retrial
And even out on license, (does that mean one would have to be visiting a parole officer?) surely she would have been past that by now, it's been over 4 years.
I like Michael. It's nice to have another nice middle aged man in the show (besides Roy).
