I understand she's the shows baddy but her words on Friday were beyond vile.

Absolutely cannot stand Anna and all about what SHE wants and that martrys face. No way would the rather drippy social worker have spoken to Faye with the whole gang present, just sitting there like spiders. Garah who normally goes off on one at the slightest thing seems very meek and mild about the whole business.

It's claustrophobic, it's suffocating, and almost incestuous - her son, Owen's daughter having a baby together to add to the already expanding, yet cloying family unit. No wonder Gary and Izzy broke up, they were virtually step brother and sister to each other.

She convinced Eddie to adopt Faye when he wasn't keen and it was the reason he left. She says she doesn't want this baby in care like Faye was, but I think it's more that she wants to keep it.Emma Hyneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18295533615251275765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7830446634490957159.post-31839155965919951582015-04-12T00:20:57.756+01:002015-04-12T00:20:57.756+01:00Did Anna herself adopt out a baby at a young age? ...Did Anna herself adopt out a baby at a young age?

It's not possible to mention everything in a review, but something else related which struck me was Anna telling the social worker she'd be giving up work and relying on Owen's salary, and then she sends him packing within the hour...

I've said in another blog that I believe the writers got this very wrong. Despite any rows between Faye and Amy, I can't imagine Tracy would waste her breath, spitting venom at a 13 year old. She'd save it for Anna. It may have been a plot device so she could have the Humpty Dumptynoreply@blogger.com
