THey're also restricted to filming more often at school holidays so that's another reason we don't get to see a lot of the children as often as you'd think normal.

Then the writers seemed to put him on hold for a while. I'm glad they've figured out what to do with the character.

The child may have been dragged from pillar to post through his childhood, given the sense of adventure his mother seems to have. Seems logical he'd be sullen, stand-offish and even trying to scare folk like Tracy when he first came round.

Definitely loved the way he helped Kirk out. This family has a fun dysfunction that suits each other and will make them one of the best family units going, so long as they get a bit more screen time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-28845218425225507102013-01-11T21:12:46.820+00:002013-01-11T21:12:46.820+00:00Another fantastic read Anna!

I realized he was not just a sullen blobby but was smart enough to see that his Mum seems happy with Kirk (however unlikely that may be), so he decided to assist the lovable simpleton.
