Well, that has really let the cat out of the bag. Kylie's death is obviously to do with the Chuckle Brothers if Chesney, Gemma and Craig are blaming themselves for it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it amazes me how quickly (men) ie Ken and Freddie get over the loss of their spouses. If anything happened to my other half, I wouldn't be interested in anyone else, certainly after only a year.
My final guess would be that Bethany's bullies are responsible for Kylie's death and that Callum's friends are just a red herring. Possibly Chesney, Gemma and Craig notice the confrontation from the kebab shop and run over but are too late to intervene and save Kylie's life. This has the merit of not having been done on any soap before as far as I am aware, and would also draw attention to the fact that bullying can have tragic consequences. However, I could be wrong..........
ReplyDeleteJudging by the pictures on the Radio Times website with Kylie lying in the middle of the street and David running over to her Kylie might well have been fatally stabbed in some kind of confrontation, possibly by one of the bullies, although the possibility remains that one of Callum's two creepy mates might have been responsible, perhaps after robbing the kebab shop which was witnessed by Kykie who intervened with fatal consequences. However, Kylie dying during a robbery is not all that original as Ernie Bishop was killed during a botched robbery at Mike Baldwins's factory in 1978. Also, in 1989, Brian Tilsley was fatally stabbed when he intervened when a girl was being harassed by a couple of blokes outside a nightclub. Therefore, Kylie dying as a result of a fatal stabbing or during a robbery is not in itself very original; it is the circumstances surrounding it which would make it all the more shocking. If she was killed by a gang of teenage bullies this might fit the bill. Perhaps she sees them harassing Bethany and goes to intervene. One of them then produces a knife and Kylie tells her to put it down or tries to grab it from her, but the girl panics and stabs Kylie, fatally wounding her. The bullies then run off and leave Kylie dying in the middle of the street.
