Again David is caught in the crossfire of his mother's lies.First she misses a mediation meeting to attend Gavin's funeral and now he may lose Max altogether now that it's hit the fan about Andy[whom I don't feel sorry for].I bet either Sarah or Bethany will gleefully tell Callum what happened with the Cafecass worker too.
ReplyDeleteThe more they show the Platt's, the more I dislike them. They have made them so dysfunctional, it is becoming hard to watch at times. From Gail down to ridiculous Bethany, they just screw each other over again and again with no remorse. Audrey needs to disown them all and move away. There used to be characters on the street who you could route for or at last have an invested interest in....but they sure are dwindling.
ReplyDeleteThis has been one of the most ridiculous storylines. It's hard to feel anything for any of the parties involved. Right at the beginning of the storyline, Michael went ahead with his search without even asking for an up-to-date photo of his son. His aunt could have at least described him in the event that she didn't have a photo of Gavin as an adult.
ReplyDeleteGavin was probably on some sort of social media, so Michael would very likely have been able to find a picture just by googling him. Also, wasn't Michael around when Gavin was a child? If so, wouldn't he notice that Andy bore no resemblance to Gavin the child, and wouldn't he have noticed some resemblance when he saw the adult Gavin? People's faces don't usually change completely when they grow up.
ReplyDeleteDidn't anyone else kind of laugh when they made reference to David looking different than he did as a child? I just instantly thought "Yeah thats because of a recast".
ReplyDeleteI don't think David has been recast. Nick was, twice.
ReplyDeleteI think it was meant to be funny because David (Jack Shepard) hasn't changed very much at all.
ReplyDeleteDavid has been recast, but that was a рicture of Jack Sheрhard at 9 years old - exactly the same!!
