“Mary returns with a chain saw”. More proof, if it were needed, that Jonathan and the team have literally lost the plot !
ReplyDeleteThey haven't lost the plot. They create the plot.
Delete!!! I like it
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know what was in that poor paperboy?
ReplyDeleteNot been disclosed yet. Patience!
DeleteI don't understand why Ed and Aggie are putting up with Grace's demands. First thing they need to do is tell Michael what she is up to and then get proper legal advice (not ask Adam or Inram in the cafe) and take her to court.
ReplyDeleteThere was nothing in the paperboy - it was just Norris having the last laugh, as he'd always hated it, so he'd asked them to break it open and destroy it.
ReplyDeleteI'm confused why Max would want to wind up Daniel.
Sarah is married to Adam Barlow and Daniel is related to him, so why would Max want this drama to get back to Aunt Sarah and his half brother, the invisible Harry?
Although it's never mentioned, Max and Harry have the same dad - Callum. Marion, Callum's mum has expressed an interest in Max, but not Harry, which was strange.
It's also strange that Max hasn't wanted to spend any time with Harry - they are related after all, and David nor Shona is his blood parent.
I just think Max would think 'Better not wind up Daniel, as Adam is married to my aunt, and she's the mother to my half brother/ cousin and the last thing I'd want is her hubby, a legal eagle threatening all sort of law suits'!
I really feel you're over thinking this. Teenagers wind people up. That's what they do. End of. I really don't think Max is thinking I'd better not wind Daniel up as I'm indirectly related to his family by marriage.
ReplyDeleteAlso why would teenager Max want to hang out with under 5 Harry, even if they are related. The age difference is a huge thing at their age
