I personally think it would be lovely to discover right about now that Simon is not actually Peter's biological child. Give the actor something good to work with and shine a light on how crazy it is that Leanne was able to get full custody of him.
ReplyDeleteThe question is, why would Leanne want full custody of him. Awful brat that he is.
ReplyDeleteIt would be interesting if it emerged that Amy was in fact the child of Tracy and Wally Bannister. At the time, Wally claimed he could not be the father because he was unable to have children. But, you know what, he lied and the truth might be revealed when Amy needs some medical procedure. Steve would go through agonies but would decide he was still Amy's father to all intents and purposes.
ReplyDeleteSimon needs a strong male role model in his life, preferably one who isn't romantically linked to Leanne. Did we read that Zeedan is going to take on that role?
Yikes.... Simon is starting to scare the crap out of me just looking at that posted pic.
ReplyDeleteSimon looks more like Damien 666 in that picture. I am really not looking forward to this. Simon was a cute kid but now needs to go and join his father in Portsmouth permanent like.
ReplyDeleteSimon is a favourite of mine. Please keep him around!
ReplyDeleteno - he needs to go and stay with his Dad in Portsmouth - obviously what he is missing right now is a strong male character in his life - perhaps when Peter comes back for the funeral he can see what has become of Simon and suggest taking him back to live with him and then we can all be done with the whole scenario.
ReplyDeleteah but I wouldn't really consider Peter a strong male character in Simon's life. He's pretty weak, all things considered. Ken has probably been the only real consistent male figure for Simon but most everyone he gets attached to leaves him in one way or another. Unsurprising he's losing the plot. It's a lot for a 12 year old to handle.
